Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source Description
TAIRRelated to Cys2/His2-type zinc-finger proteins found in higher plants. Compensated for a subset of calcineurin deficiency in yeast. Salt tolerance produced by ZAT10 appeared to be partially dependent on ENA1/PMR2, a P-type ATPase required for Li+ and Na+ efflux in yeast. The protein is localized to the nucleus, acts as a transcriptional repressor and is responsive to chitin oligomers. Also involved in response to photooxidative stress.
UniProtTranscriptional repressor involved in abiotic stress responses. Can repress the stress responsive genes DREB1A and LTI78. Probably involved in jasmonate (JA) early signaling response. May regulate the expression of the JA biosynthesis gene LOX3 and control the expression of TIFY10A/JAZ1, a key repressor in the JA signaling cascade. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12032082, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15333755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17112521, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18216250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20140232, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8662738}.

  1. Zat10 plays a key role as both a positive and a negative regulator of plant defenses.
    [PMID: 17112521]
  2. Data show thatZAT10 overexpression resulted in enhanced tolerance to photoinhibitory light and exogenous H2O2, increased expression of antioxidative genes whose products are targeted to multiple subcellular compartments.
    [PMID: 18156220]
  3. a C(2)H(2)-type zinc finger transcription factor from Arabidopsis, ZAT10, is a substrate of Mitogen-activated protein kinases.
    [PMID: 22134874]
  4. Overall, our findings indicate that H(2) acts as a novel and cytoprotective regulator in coupling ZAT10/12-mediated antioxidant defence and maintenance of ion homeostasis in the improvement of Arabidopsis salt tolerance
