TAIR Computational Description | Transcription factor GTE6;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a member of the BET subgroup of bromodomain proteins, a novel class of putative transcription factors. Its expression is induced during seed imbibition and downregulated during germination. Seeds of a loss-of-function mutant allele, imb1, show impaired cotyledon greening during germination in abscisic acid (ABA) and express higher levels of ABI5 protein than the wild type. Moreover, imb1 seeds are deficient in the phytochrome A (phyA)-mediated very-low-fluence response of germination. |
