WRKY transcription factors in plant defense

Trends in Genetics, 2023
Environmental stressors caused by climate change are fundamental barriers to agricultural sustainability. Enhancing the stress resilience of crops is a key strategy in achieving global food security. Plants perceive adverse environmental conditions and initiate signaling pathways to activate precise responses that contribute to their survival.

WRKY transcription factors

Trends in Plant Science, 2010
WRKY transcription factors are one of the largest families of transcriptional regulators in plants and form integral parts of signalling webs that modulate many plant processes. Here, we review recent significant progress in WRKY transcription factor research. New findings illustrate that WRKY proteins often act as repressors as well as activators, and

Review: WRKY transcription factors: Understanding the functional divergence

Plant Science, 2023
WRKY transcription factors (TFs) play crucial roles in the growth and development of plants and their response to environmental changes. WRKY TFs have been detected in sequenced plant genomes. The functions and regulatory networks of many WRKY TFs, especially from Arabidopsis thaliana (AtWRKY TFs), have been revealed, and the origin of WRKY TFs in ...

The WRKY superfamily of plant transcription factors

Trends in Plant Science, 2000
The WRKY proteins are a superfamily of transcription factors with up to 100 representatives in Arabidopsis. Family members appear to be involved in the regulation of various physio-logical programs that are unique to plants, including pathogen defense, senescence and trichome development. In spite of the strong conservation of their DNA-binding domain,

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 ...
