  1. These results suggest that bHLH122 functions as a positive regulator of drought, sodium chloride and osmotic signaling.
    [PMID: 24261563]
  2. Phosphorylation results in the monomerization of AKS1 multimers and inhibits AKS1 binding to DNA. AKS1 forms homo-multimers which dissociate following phosphorylation.
    [PMID: 27227462]
  3. AKS1 provides a link between the signaling complex and abscisic Acid-responsive genes.SnRK2.6 phosphorylates AKS1 in guard cells.
