APETALA2/Ethylene Responsive Factor (AP2/ERF) transcription factors: mediators of stress responses and developmental programs
TL;DR: This review of transcription factors belonging to the APETALA2/Ethylene Responsive Factor family combines the evidence collected from functional and structural studies to describe their different mechanisms of action and the regulatory pathways that affect their activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxygen sensing in plants is mediated by an N-end rule pathway for protein destabilization
Francesco Licausi,Francesco Licausi,Monika Kosmacz,Daan A. Weits,Beatrice Giuntoli,Federico M. Giorgi,Laurentius A. C. J. Voesenek,Pierdomenico Perata,Joost T. van Dongen +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that one branch of the ubiquitin-dependent N-end rule pathway for protein degradation, which is active in both mammals and plants, functions as an oxygen-sensing mechanism in Arabidopsis thaliana and opens up new possibilities for improving flooding tolerance in crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
Making sense of low oxygen sensing
Julia Bailey-Serres,Takeshi Fukao,Daniel J. Gibbs,Michael J. Holdsworth,Seung Cho Lee,Francesco Licausi,Francesco Licausi,Pierdomenico Perata,Laurentius A. C. J. Voesenek,Joost T. van Dongen +9 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the turnover of group VII ERFs is of ecological relevance in wetland species and might be manipulated to improve flood tolerance of crops and evade oxygen-regulated N-end rule degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI
HRE1 and HRE2, two hypoxia-inducible ethylene response factors, affect anaerobic responses in Arabidopsis thaliana
Francesco Licausi,Joost T. van Dongen,Beatrice Giuntoli,Giacomo Novi,Antonietta Santaniello,Peter Geigenberger,Peter Geigenberger,Pierdomenico Perata +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined two Arabidopsis Hypoxia Responsive ERF genes (HRE1 and HRE2), belonging to the same ERF group as Sub1A.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle are linked by alanine aminotransferase during hypoxia induced by waterlogging of Lotus japonicus.
Marcio Rocha,Francesco Licausi,Wagner L. Araújo,Adriano Nunes-Nesi,Ladaslav Sodek,Alisdair R. Fernie,J. T. van Dongen +6 more
TL;DR: The role of nitrogen metabolism in the survival of prolonged periods of waterlogging was investigated in highly flood-tolerant, nodulated Lotus japonicus plants and alanine production revealed to be a critical hypoxic pathway.
