Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source Description
TAIRputative transcription factor of the R2R3-MYB gene family. Transcript increases under conditions that promote stomatal opening (white and blue light, abi1-1 mutation) and decreases under conditions that trigger stomatal closure (ABA, desiccation, darkness), with the exception of elevated CO2. Expressed exclusively in guard cells of all tissues. It is required for light-induced opening of stomata. Mutant shows reduced stomatal aperture which helps to limit water loss during drought.
UniProtTranscription factor involved in the regulation of gene (e.g. drought-regulated and flavonoid biosynthetic genes) expression and stomatal movements leading to negative regulation of responses to drought and responses to other physiological stimuli (e.g. light) (PubMed:16005291, PubMed:21637967). Promotes guard cell deflation in response to water deficit. Triggers root growth upon osmotic stress (e.g. mannitol containing medium) (PubMed:21637967). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16005291, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21637967}.

Source Description
UniProtINDUCTION: Induced by jasmonic acid (JA) and salicylic acid (SA) (PubMed:16463103). Triggered by auxin (IAA) in roots (PubMed:9839469, PubMed:21637967). Stimulated by light, UV-light and cold (PubMed:9839469). According to PubMed:16005291 and PubMed:23828545, rapidly repressed by abscisic acid (ABA) in an ABI1-dependent manner. But in contrast, according to PubMed:21637967, transiently induced by ABA in seedlings (PubMed:16005291, PubMed:21637967, PubMed:23828545). Rapidly repressed by drought. Activated by white light, but repressed by blue light and darkness (PubMed:16005291). Transiently induced by salt (NaCl) in seedlings. Induced by sucrose (PubMed:21637967). Positively regulated by SCAP1 (PubMed:23453954). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16005291, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16463103, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21637967, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23453954, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23828545, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9839469}.
