WRKY53

Gene
WRKY53
Protein
Probable WRKY transcription factor 53
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
324 amino acids
Function
Transcription factor. Interacts specifically with the W box (5'-(T)TGAC[CT]-3'), a frequently occurring elicitor-responsive cis-acting element (PubMed:20409006). May regulate the early events of leaf senescence (PubMed:17369373, PubMed:20409006). Negatively regulates the expression of ESR/ESP (PubMed:20409006). Together with WRKY46 and WRKY70, promotes resistance to P.syringae, probably by enhancing salicylic acid (SA)- dependent genes. Contributes to the suppression of jasmonic acid (MeJA)-induced expression of PDF1.2 (PubMed:22325892).
Similarity
Belongs to the WRKY group III family.
