Thioredoxin TRXo1 is involved in ABA perception via PYR1 redox regulation.

ABSTRACT: Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a fundamental role in plant growth and development processes such as seed germination, stomatal response or adaptation to stress, amongst others. Increases in the endogenous ABA content is recognized by specific receptors of the PYR/PYL/RCAR family that are coupled to a phosphorylation cascade targeting transcription factors and ion channels. Just like other receptors of the family, nuclear receptor PYR1 binds ABA and inhibits the activity of type 2C phosphatases (PP2Cs), thus avoiding the phosphatase-exerted inhibition on SnRK2 kinases, positive regulators which phosphorylate targets and trigger ABA signalling. Thioredoxins (TRXs) are key components of cellular redox homeostasis that regulate specific target proteins through a thiol-disulfide exchange, playing an
