Title
Arabidopsis ESK1 encodes a novel regulator of freezing tolerance
Zhanguo Xin; Ajin Mandaokar; Junping Chen; et al. The Plant Journal 2007. doi:10.1111/j.1365-313x.2006.02994.x
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect The esk1 mutation improved freezing tolerance by 5.5 degrees C without cold acclimation.
- Observation Increased freezing tolerance was not accompanied by improved drought or salt survival.
- Intervention effect esk1 mutations alter expression of transcription factors, signaling components and stress responsive genes.
- Association The 312 ESK1-regulated genes overlap more with salt, osmotic and abscisic acid gene sets than cold acclimation, CBF3 or ICE1 sets.
- Observation Map-based cloning identified esk1 as At3g55990.
- Observation Wild-type ESK1 encodes a 57-kDa DUF231-domain protein.
- Mechanism The authors infer ESK1 negatively regulates cold acclimation.
