Characterization of the ARR15 and ARR16 response regulators with special reference to the cytokinin signaling pathway mediated by the AHK4 histidine kinase in roots of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Abstract excerpt

The cytokinin receptor AHK4 histidine kinase, identified in Arabidopsis thaliana, presumably acts in concert with downstream components, such as histidine-containing phosphotransfer (HPt) factors (AHPs) and response regulators (ARRs). In this respect, we characterized a loss-of-function mutant of the AHK4 gene, named cre1-1, which showed a reduced cell number within the vascular tissues in roots. Among the 10...
