Description : (at1g32640 : 246.0) Encodes a MYC-related transcriptional activator with a typical DNA binding domain of a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper motif. Binds to an extended G-Box promoter motif. Its transcription is induced by dehydration stress and ABA treatment. Negative regulator of blue lightñmediated photomorphogenic growth and blue and far-red-lightñregulated gene expression. Positive regulator of lateral root formation. Regulates diverse JA-dependent functions. Negatively regulates Trp metabolism and biosynthesis of Trp-derived secondary metabolites. Positively regulates flavonoid biosynthesis, resistance to insects, and response to oxidative stress. Regulates other transcription factors, and negatively regulates its own expression.; MYC2; FUNCTIONS IN: DNA binding, transcription activator activity, sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; INVOLVED IN: in 13 processes; LOCATED IN: nucleus; EXPRESSED IN: 26 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: 13 growth stages; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding domain (InterPro:IPR001092), Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding (InterPro:IPR011598); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) DNA-binding family protein (TAIR:AT4G17880.1); Has 4078 Blast hits to 3762 proteins in 672 species: Archae - 2; Bacteria - 2; Metazoa - 761; Fungi - 108; Plants - 3150; Viruses - 25; Other Eukaryotes - 30 (source: NCBI BLink). & (p13027|arrs_maize : 97.8) Anthocyanin regulatory R-S protein - Zea mays (Maize) & (reliability: 492.0) & (original description: no original description)
