Source Description
TAIREncodes a member of the DREB subfamily A-1 of ERF/AP2 transcription factor family (DDF1). The protein contains one AP2 domain. There are six members in this subfamily, including CBF1, CBF2, and CBF3. Overexpression of this gene results in delayed flowering and dwarfism, reduction of gibberellic acid biosynthesis, and increased tolerance to high levels of salt. This gene is expressed in all tissues examined, but most abundantly expressed in upper stems. Overexpression of this gene is also correlated with increased expression of GA biosynthetic genes and RD29A (a cold and drought responsive gene). Under salt stress it induces the expression of GAOX7, which encodes ad C20-GA inhibitor.
UniProtTranscriptional activator that binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-[AG]CCGAC-3'. Binding to the C-repeat/DRE element mediates cold or dehydration-inducible transcription. CBF/DREB1 factors play a key role in freezing tolerance and cold acclimation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11798174}.
