TAIR Curator Summary | Negative regulator of systemic acquired resistance (SAR), repressor of pathogenesis-related PR gene expression which is removed by NPR1 upon induction of SAR. Encodes leucine-rich nuclear protein. Conserved in plants, with putative orthologs found in several plant species. Many NPR1-dependent PR gene are specifically derepressed in the sni1 mutant. The structural similarity of SNI1 to Armadillo repeat proteins implies that SNI1 may form a scaffold for interaction with proteins that modulate transcription. Histone modification may be involved in SNI1-mediated repression of PR genes.SNI1 is the NSE6 subunit of the SMC5/6 complex. It can interact with and inhibit E2F transcription factors. |
