High impact information on WRKY6

Furthermore, the SIRK gene promoter was specifically activated by WRKY6 in vivo, functioning very likely through direct W-box interactions [1].
On the other hand, WRKY6 positively influenced the senescence- and pathogen defense-associated PR1 promoter activity, most likely involving NPR1 function [1].
The transcriptional activation of SIRK is dependent on WRKY6 function [1].
WRKY6 was found to suppress its own promoter activity as well as that of a closely related WRKY family member, indicating negative autoregulation [1].
Targets of AtWRKY6 regulation during plant senescence and pathogen defense [1].

Other interactions of WRKY6

A new member of the Arabidopsis WRKY transcription factor family, AtWRKY6, is associated with both senescence- and defence-related processes [2].
