TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a GPCR-type G protein receptor with nine predicted transmembrane domains. The protein binds abscisic acid (ABA) and is predicted to function as an ABA receptor. It has GTP-binding and GTPase activity and binds to ABA more effectively in the presence of GDP. GTG1 binds to GPA1, the alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein. GPA1 (in its GTP-bound state) affects the GTP binding and GTPase activity of GTG1 and may act to down-regulate GTG1 binding to ABA. GTG1 is widely expressed throughout the plant and appears to be involved in the regulation of several ABA-dependent responses including seed germination, plant development, and promotion of stomatal closure. GTG1 transcript levels do not appear to change in response to ABA or abiotic stresses. |
