19565189 Dai Y, Qin Q, Dai D, Kong L, Li W, Zha X, Jin Y, Tang K: Isolation and characterization of a novel cDNA encoding methyl jasmonate-responsive transcription factor TcAP2 from Taxus cuspidata. Biotechnol Lett. 2009 Nov;31(11):1801-9. Epub 2009 Jun 30.

Analysis of the deduced TcAP2 amino acid sequence revealed that TcAP2 contained a conserved AP2/ethylene-responsive element binding protein domain that consisted of 268 amino acids in a potential nuclear localization sequence.

The promoter region of this transcription factor, a member of the ERF sub-family of the AP2/ERF super family, contains putative binding sites relating to auxin and cytokinin in addition to ethylene.

19560230 Glazinska P, Zienkiewicz A, Wojciechowski W, Kopcewicz J: The putative miR172 target gene InAPETALA2-like is involved in the photoperiodic flower induction of Ipomoea nil. J Plant Physiol. 2009 Nov 1;166(16):1801-13. Epub 2009 Jun 27.

The miR172 gene is involved in the regulation of flowering time and floral organ identity in Arabidopsis thaliana through regulation of APETALA2 (AP2)-like genes' activity.
Auxin and ethylene treatment, as well as a "night-break", which completely eliminated flowering induction of Ipomoea nil, caused a decrease in the InAP2-like mRNAs levels in cotyledons of Ipomoea nil.

It belonged to a group IV protein in the ERF (ethylene response factor) subfamily as typified by a conserved N-terminal motif [MCGGAI (I/L)].

ZY821 at the earlier stages of infection (6-12 hpi) for many genes, including those encoding defence-associated proteins, such as chitinases, glucanases, osmotins and lectins, as well as genes encoding transcription factors belonging to the zinc finger, WRKY, APETALA2 (AP2) and MYB classes.
In both cultivars, genes encoding enzymes involved in jasmonic acid, ethylene and auxin synthesis were induced, as were those for gibberellin degradation.

Sequence alignment showed that GmERF4 contains one AP2/ERF domain, two putative nuclear localization signal regions and one EAR motif.
Furthermore, the expression of GmERF4 was induced by ethylene, JA, SA, cold, salt, drought, and soybean mosaic virus, and repressed by ABA.

Arabidopsis RAP2.2 (At3g14230) is an AP2/ERF-type transcription factor that belongs to the same subfamily as the rice submergence tolerance gene SUB1A.

We previously characterized the rice (Oryza sativa) Submergence1 (Sub1) locus encoding three ethylene-responsive factor (ERF) transcriptional regulators.
Of particular interest were a set of APETALA2 (AP2)/ERF family transcriptional regulators that are associated with the Sub1A-1-mediated response upon submergence.

Conserved amino acid residues and phylogeny reconstruction using the AP2 conserved domain suggest that the classification into 10 major groups used for Arabidopsis and rice is applicable to the cotton ERF family.
