Source Description
TAIREncodes a homolog of HY5 (HYH). Involved in phyB signaling pathway.
UniProtTranscription factor that promotes photomorphogenesis in light. Acts downstream of the light receptor network and directly affects transcription of light-induced genes. Specifically involved in the blue light specific pathway, suggesting that it participates in transmission of cryptochromes (CRY1 and CRY2) signals to downstream responses. In darkness, its degradation prevents the activation of light-induced genes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12023303}.

  1. The data support the hypothesis that the opposite root system phenotypes of hy5 single and hy5 hyh double mutants represent the morphological response to a quantitative gradient in the same molecular process.
    [PMID: 17121469]
  2. important for high nitrate reductase expression in red light
    [PMID: 17929051]

    [PMID: 18055587]
  4. HYH and PEX11b constitute a novel branch of the phyA-mediated light signaling cascade, which promotes peroxisome proliferation during seedling photomorphogenesis.

  7. Together with HY5/HYH, gibberellins signaling may play an important role during low temperature-induced anthocyanin accumulation.
    [PMID: 21636970]
  8. light triggers MSBP1 expression through direct binding to and activation by HY5 and HYH.
    [PMID: 21715650]
  9. the functional interrelations of GBF1 with HY5 and HYH in Arabidopsis seedling development.
    [PMID: 22692212]
  10. Data indicate that the PIF1/PIF3-HY5/HYH transcriptional modules mediate crosstalk between light and ROS signaling and a mechanism by which plants adapt to the light environments.

  15. It has been reported that HY5 regulates HYH expression in roots and contributes to root growth under different light conditions.
    [PMID: 28683099]
  16. Genetic analyses reveal that RSM1 mediates multiple functions of HY5 in responses of seed germination, post-germination development to ABA and abiotic stresses, and seedling tolerance to salinity. Pull-down and BiFC assays show that RSM1 interacts with HY5/HYH in vitro and in vivo. RSM1 and HY5/HYH may function as a regulatory module in responses to ABA and abiotic stresses.
