Abstract excerpt
Arabidopsis receptors of abscisic acid (ABA), the key plant hormone for adaptation to water stress, comprise 14 PYR/PYLs/RCARs proteins classified into three subfamilies I, II, and III, which suggests functional differentiation. Although their monomer-dimer equilibria may be correlated with differences in their ABA-binding affinities, how the dimerization decreases the affinity is unclear. Comparative structural...
