Source Description
TAIRmember of WRKY Transcription Factor; Group II-e
UniProtTranscription factor involved in the expression of defense genes in innate immune response of plants. Interacts specifically with the W box (5'-(T)TGAC[CT]-3'), a frequently occurring elicitor-responsive cis-acting element. Activates WRKY 29, SIRK and its own promoters. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11875555}.
Function -- GeneRIF ? help Back to Top
  1. AtWRKY22 participates in the dark-induced senescence signal transduction pathway
    [PMID: 21359674]
  2. Data indicate that WRKY22 T-DNA insertion mutants wrky22-1 and wrky22-2 had lower disease resistance and lower induction of innate immunity markers, such as FLG22-INDUCED RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASE1 (FRK1) and WRKY53, after submergence.
    [PMID: 23897923]
  3. WRKY22 modulates the interplay between the salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) pathways in response to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stimuli. Its induction by aphids and its role in suppressing SA and JA signalling make WRKY22 a potential target for aphids to manipulate host plant defences.
