ABI5 (abscisic acid insensitive 5) is involved in ABA-regulated gene expression during seed development and subsequent vegetative stage and acts as the major mediator of ABA repression of growth. Binds to the embryo specification element and the ABA-responsive element (ABRE) of the Dc3 gene promoter and to the ABRE of the Em1 and Em6 genes promoters. Alternative names: ABI5, ABA INSENSITIVE 5, GIA1, GROWTH-INSENSITIVITY TO ABA 1, Dc3 promoter-binding factor 1, AtDPBF1, GROWTH-INSENSITIVITY TO ABA 1, bZIP transcription factor 39, AtbZIP39.
Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please remember to spin the tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from material adhering to the cap or sides of the tube.
