  Resist to Drought: A Novel Regulator in Plant ABA Signaling

  Abscisic acid (ABA) is a phytohormone that plays a fundamental role in plant development and stress response, especially in the regulation of stomatal closure in response to water deficit stress. The signal transduction that occurs in response to ABA and drought stress is mediated by protein phosphorylation and ubiquitination. Protein ubiquitination plays a fundamental role in accurate adjustment of abundance and activity on some key regulatory proteins. However, the mechanism of how E3 ligase regulated specifically in response to external stimuli is not unclear. Now Prof. QIN Feng and her team from the Institute of Botany, CAS, have identified Arabidopsis thaliana CHYR1 as an ubiquitin E3 ligase.
