Towards functional characterisation of the members of theR2R3‐MYBgene family fromArabidopsis thaliana
Open accessAbstract
Summary: Transcription factors containing a conserved DNA‐binding domain similar to that of the proto‐oncogene c‐myb have been identified in nearly all eukaryotes. MYB‐related proteins from plants generally contain two related helix‐turn‐helix motifs, the R2 and R3 repeats. It was estimated that Arabidopsis thaliana contains more than 100 R2R3‐MYB genes. The few cases where functional data are available suggest an important role of these genes in the regulation of secondary metabolism, the control of cell shape, disease resistance, and hormone responses. To determine the full regulatory potential of this large family of regulatory genes, a systematic search for the function of all genes of this family was initiated . Sequence data for more than 90 different A. thaliana R2R3‐MYB genes have been obtained. Sequence comparison revealed conserved amino acid motifs shared by subgroups of R2R3‐MYB genes in addition to the characteristic DNA‐binding domain. No significant clustering of the genes was detected, although they are not uniformly distributed throughout the A. thaliana genome. R2R3‐MYB gene expression levels were determined under more than 20 different growth conditions including hormone treatment, infection with pathogens and various stress conditions. MYB genes are specifically expressed in different tissues and physiological conditions, indicating the potential for involvement in various regulatory processes. The sequence and expression data together with the map positions of nearly all MYB genes in A. thaliana provide a substantial basis for further studies of this important group of transcription factors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
