Background:
Transcription factor that acts as a positive regulator of the jasmonate (JA) pathway to mediate leaf senescence (PubMed:24028154).May directly regulate LOX2, AOC, AOS2, AOC1 and OPR7, which are genes involved in the biosynthesis of JA (PubMed:24028154).Regulates positively leaf senescence by directly targeting senescence-associated genes (SAGs) related to chlorophyll degradation, nutrient transport and other genes associated with abscisic acid-induced leaf senescence (PubMed:24951508).Transcription activator that plays a role in mediating abiotic stress responses through the abscisic acid (ABA) pathway (PubMed:24399239).Possesses transcriptional activator activity in yeast (PubMed:24399239).
