The WRKY superfamily of plant transcription factors Introduction Wrky ▶ WRKY (pronounced‘worky’) proteins, a large family of transcriptional regulators that has to date only been found in plants. ▶ The WRKY domain is defined by the conserved amino acidsequence WRKYGQK at its N-terminal end, together with a novel zinc-finger-like motif ▶ Many WRKY proteins having a regulatory function in the response to pathogen infection and other stresses. ▶ levels of WRKY mRNA, protein and DNA-binding activity havebeen reported to be induced by infection with viruses oomycetes fungal elicitors9 Signaling substances such as salicylic acid ▶ Comparative expression studies with several AtWRKY genes also suggest that certain family members have a role in the regulation of senescence. ▶ Transcript levels of AtWRKY4, 6, 7 and 11 are enhanced in senescent leaves. ▶ W boxes have been described as positive cis-acting elements upregulating transcription. 1.group I : two WRKY domains group II: one WRKY domains group III: newly define group 2.(Pc)sweet potato (Ib), Arabidopsis (At), tobacco (Nt), cucumber (Cs) and wild oat (Af ).

Results Targets of AtWRKY6 regulation during plant senescence and pathogen defense ABSTRACT In Arabidopsis, ▶ WRKY factors large gene family of plant-specific transcriptional regulators controlling several types of plant stress responses. ▶ we identified targets of the senescence- and defense-associated WRKY6 factor. ▶ WRKY6 was found to suppress its own promoter activity, indicating negative autoregulation. ▶ WRKY6 positively influenced the senescence- and pathogen defenseassociated PR1 promoter activity, most likely involving NPR1 function. ▶ One novel identified target gene, SIRK, encodes a receptor-like protein kinase, whose developmental expression is strongly induced specifically during leaf senescence. SIRK is dependent on WRKY6 function. ▶ Senescing leaves of wrky6 knockout mutants showed a drastic reduction, green leaves of WRKY6 overexpression lines showed clearly elevated SIRK ▶ The SIRK gene promoter was activated by WRKY6 in vivo The Plant Journal En-1 transposon insertion Figure 1.
