Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb031210
• Gene Symbol: ZmbZIP111
• Gene Name: bZIP-transcription factor 111
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Transcription factor ZmWRKY20 interacts with ZmWRKY115 to repress expression of ZmbZIP111 for salt tolerance in maize.
• The results substantiate that ZmWRKY20 is directly targeted to the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) motif in the transcription factor ZmbZIP111.
• It was also verified that ZmWRKY20 interacts with ZmWRKY115 and both proteins act jointly to enhance ZmbZIP111 repression.
• ZmbZIP111 functions as a salt stress regulator and whether other genes are involved in the regulatory process still require further study.
