Abstract

Significance: PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs) are central integrators of plants’ responses to various environmental signals. In this study, we show that PIF3 acts as a negative regulator of plant cold acclimation by directly repressing the expression of CBF genes, whereas its protein stability is negatively regulated by two F-box proteins, EBF1 and EBF2, via the 26S proteasome pathway. Moreover, EBF1 and EBF2 are degraded under cold stress, which enhances the stability of PIF3 protein. Collectively, our study establishes an important regulatory paradigm for PIF3 in preventing runaway expression of the CBF genes at low temperature, which allows plants to adapt to and withstand harsh environments.

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.
