Source Description
TAIRmember of WRKY Transcription Factor; Group II-c

Function -- GeneRIF ? help Back to Top
  1. WRKY28 specifically binds to the ICS1 promoter in vivo, most probably to one or both binding sites at position -460 and -445 upstream of the transcription start site.
    [PMID: 21595875]
  2. A few genes having either WRKY or bHLH cis elements in their promoter regions showed higher transcript levels than wild type.
    [PMID: 22948308]
  3. Transgenic lines overexpressing AtWRKY28 and AtWRKY75 showed enhanced resistance to oxalic acid and S. sclerotiorum, demonstrating that both AtWRKY28 and AtWRKY75 are novel positive regulators in Arabidopsis defense responses.
    [PMID: 23749099]
  4. These findings show how somatic cells in ovule primordia cooperatively use chromatin remodeling to restrict germ-line cell specification to a single cell.
