Arabidopsis basic leucine zipper transcription factors involved in an abscisic acid-dependent signal transduction pathway under drought and high-salinity condition
ABA? • Phytohormoneabscisic acid • ABA play important roles in vegetative tissues, seed maturation, dormancy to abioticenvironmental stress such as drought , high salimity, cold • ABA promotes with ABI1, ABA2 stomatal closure in the guard cells and regulate the expression of many genes • ABA-inducible gene contain conserved ABRE ABRE(ABA-responsive element) - ABRE(ACGTGGC) in there promoter regions -Function as a cis-acting DNA element involved in ABA-regulated gene expression Specific binding with bZIP protein
-ABREs were first identified in the wheat Em gene ( seed during late embryogenesis) , rice Rab16 gene (expressed in dehydrated vegetative tissues and maturating seed) • -G-box (CACGTG) contein bZIP motif resembles the ABRE motif and functions in the regulation of plant genes in a variety of enviromental conditions (red light, UV light, anaerobiosis, wounding)
ABA Signal Pathway ABI (ABA-Insensitive)1, ABA2 , ERA1 Encode protein phosphatase Key component of signal transduction in Arabidopsis regulate diverse response to the phytohormone abscisic acid Stomatal closure Seed dormancy Inhibition of regulation growth
ABA-related Mutant abi1 : suppressors of non-germination GA-deficient lines phenotype : ABA deficient ; decreased stress or ABA induction of gene expression sugar-resistant seedling growth aba2 : Reduced dormancy phenotype : analogous to abi1 era1 : enhanced response to ABA at germination Expressed in vegetative tissues and are thought to be essential for negative regulation of ABA signaling during vegetative growth

AREB1(ABA-Responsive element binding proteins), AREB2, AREB3 • AREB protein contained a sigle bZIP-type DNA-binding domain and upregulated by ABA Function of the AREB proteins in the ABA-dependent signaling pathway in vegetative tissues under dehydration stress condition

Induction of the dehydration-responsive Arabodpsis gene, rd29B, is mediatedmainly ABA • Promoter of rd29B indicated that two ABREs are required for the dehydration-responsive expression of rd29B • Three cDNAs encoding bZIP type AREB1, 2, 3 were isolated by using the yeast one-hybrid system • AREB1,2 gene is up- regulated by drought, NaCl, ABA treatment in vegetative tissues • AREB1,2 proteins activated transcription by ABRE and required ABA for their activation , suppressed by protein kinase inhibitors • phosphorylation is necessary for their maximum activation by ABA, N-term rigion in the AREB proteins
