OsWRKY53, a chitin oligosaccharide elicitor-responsive rice WRKY gene, has been found to be involved in defense responses in rice. We identified three tandem W-box elements, putative recognition sites for WRKY transcription factors, as cis elements that are essential to the elicitor-responsiveness of OsWRKY53 by deletion and mutation analysis of the promoter by dual luciferase assay.
OsWRKY53是一种对几丁质寡糖激发子有反应的水稻WRKY基因,已发现它参与水稻的防御反应。通过双荧光素酶检测对启动子进行缺失和突变分析,我们鉴定出三个串联的W-box元件,即WRKY转录因子的假定识别位点,作为对OsWRKY53激发子反应性至关重要的顺式元件。
