Source Description
TAIREncodes GLK2, Golden2-like 2, one of a pair of partially redundant nuclear transcription factors that regulate chloroplast development in a cell-autonomous manner. GLK1, Golden2-like 1, is encoded by At2g20570. GLK1 and GLK2 regulate the expression of the photosynthetic apparatus.
UniProtTranscriptional activator that functions with GLK1 to promote chloroplast development. Acts as an activator of nuclear photosynthetic genes involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis, light harvesting, and electron transport. Acts in a cell-autonomous manner to coordinate and maintain the photosynthetic apparatus within individual cells. May function in photosynthetic capacity optimization by integrating responses to variable environmental and endogenous cues (PubMed:11828027, PubMed:12220263, PubMed:18643989, PubMed:19376934, PubMed:19383092, PubMed:19726569). Prevents premature senescence (PubMed:23459204). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11828027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12220263, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18643989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19376934, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19383092, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19726569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23459204}.

  1. GLK1 and GLK2 are functionally equivalent. They act in a cell-autonomous manner to regulate chloroplast development. When mis-expressed in the phloem, GLKs can be unloaded into adjoining photosynthetic tissue.
    [PMID: 18643989]
  2. GLK1 and GLK2 stimulate expression of chlorophyll biosynthesis and light-harvesting genes.
    [PMID: 19376934]
  3. ORE1 interacts with the G2-like transcription factors GLK1 and GLK2, which are important for chloroplast development and maintenance.
    [PMID: 23459204]
  4. Overexpression of GLKs caused up-regulation of not only their direct targets but also non-target nuclear and plastid genes, leading to global induction of chloroplast biogenesis in the root.
    [PMID: 23749810]
  5. Overexpressors of the Golden2-like transcription factors GLK1 and GLK2 were identified as genomes uncoupled mutants.
    [PMID: 26876646]
  6. plants that overexpress GLK1/2 exhibited an open-stomata phenotype and higher sensitivity to ozone
    [PMID: 27035938]
  7. results indicated that GLKs played a positively role in virus resistance in Arabidopsis
    [PMID: 27346129]
  8. P69 binding to GLK proteins may interfere with the interaction between GLK proteins and upstream transcription factors, causing defective binding of GLK proteins to their targets.
    [PMID: 27964999]
  9. Results indicate key regulatory features of the GATA NITRATE-INDUCIBLE CARBON-METABOLISM-INVOLVED (GNC) and GOLDEN TWO-LIKE (GLK2) transcription factor families that contribute to the control of chloroplast biogenesis and photosynthetic activity.
