The Structure and Function of Plant WRKY Transcription Factors

HEREDITAS, 2006
WRKY transcription factors that are unique to plants are the new type transcriptional regulatory factors in which N-terminal ends contain a conserved WRKYGQR amino acids sequences. WRKY transcription factors regulate the target genes expression that contain the W-box elements in the promoter regions by specifically binding to (T)(T)TGAC(C/T) sequence ...

Structure and Evolution of WRKY Transcription Factors

2016
In the light of increasing numbers of sequenced plant genomes we have re-evaluated the evolution of the WRKY transcription factor family. In particular, the publication of the first charophyte genome sequence from Klebsormidium flaccidum filled a gap in the available genome sequences in the plant kingdom between unicellular green algae such as ...

In Vivo Phosphorylation of WRKY Transcription Factor by MAPK

2014
Plants activate signaling networks in response to diverse pathogen-derived signals, facilitating transcriptional reprogramming through mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades. Identification of phosphorylation targets of MAPK and in vivo detection of the phosphorylated substrates are important processes to elucidate the signaling pathway in ...

WRKY transcription factor MdWRKY71 regulates flowering time in apple

Plant Molecular Biology
In plants, flowering is crucial to reproductive success. Receiving limited attention in apple research is the function of WRKY transcription factors in regulating flowering time. We characterized a WRKY transcription factor, MdWRKY71, from red-fleshed apple in this study, and ectopically expressed it in Arabidopsis thaliana, which revealed its role in ...

Post-translational regulation of WRKY transcription factors in plant immunity

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2012
Plants have evolved immune system to protect themselves against invading pathogens. Recent research has illustrated that signaling networks, after perception of diverse pathogen-derived signals, facilitate transcriptional reprogramming through mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades.

Genome-wide analysis of WRKY transcription factors in Solanum lycopersicum

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2012
The WRKY transcription factors have been implicated in multiple biological processes in plants, especially in regulating defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little information is available about the WRKYs in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum).

The role of WRKY transcription factors in plant abiotic stresses

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2012
The WRKY gene family has been suggested to play important roles in the regulation of transcriptional reprogramming associated with plant stress responses. Modification of the expression patterns of WRKY genes and/or changes in their activity contribute to the elaboration of various signaling pathways and regulatory networks.

Rapid systemic accumulation of transcripts encoding a tobacco WRKY transcription factor upon wounding

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 2000
An immediate-early, transiently activated wound-responsive gene was identified in tobacco by fluorescent differential display screening. The full-length cDNA encodes a polypeptide of 356 amino acids with a relative molecular mass of 39,082 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence shows two characteristic features; a leucine-zipper motif found in the more N ...

WRKY Transcription Factors: Involvement in Plant–Pathogen Interactions

2017
Transcriptional reprogramming takes place as defense response to help plants overcome different stresses. The defense-related gene expression is elicited by interaction of a ligand–receptor complex that induces the expression of early response genes. A number of transcription factors (TFs) have been found to participate in defense responses in plants ...
