Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source Description
TAIREncodes a member of basic leucine zipper transcription gene family. Nomenclature according to Xiang, et al. (1997).
UniProtTranscriptional activator that binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-TGACG-3'. Recognizes ocs elements like the as-1 motif of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. Binding to the as-1-like cis elements mediate auxin- and salicylic acid-inducible transcription. May be involved in the induction of the systemic acquired resistance (SAR) via its interaction with NPR1. Could also bind to the Hex-motif (5'-TGACGTGG-3') another cis-acting element found in plant histone promoters.
