General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | RING Finger ABA-Related1 (RFA1) and RFA4 E3 ubiquitin ligases are key regulators of abscisic acid receptor stability in root and leaf tissues, targeting abscisic acid receptors for degradation in different subcellular locations. Endogenous levels of PYR1 and PYL4 abscisic acid receptors are higher in the Rfa1 Rfa4 double mutant than in wild-type plants. UBC26 is the cognate nuclear E2 enzyme that interacts with the RFA4 E3 ligase and forms UBC26-RFA4-receptor complexes in nuclear speckles. Loss-of-function Ubc26 alleles and the Rfa1Rrfa4 double mutant show enhanced sensitivity to abscisic acid and accumulation of abscisic acid receptors compared with the wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
