Abstract excerpt
Members of the R/B basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of plant transcription factors are involved in a variety of growth and differentiation processes. We isolated a dominant mutation in an R/B-related bHLH transcription factor in the course of studying Arabidopsis tryptophan pathway regulation. This mutant, atr2D, displayed increased expression of several tryptophan genes as well as a subset of other...
