NLP7 — Arabidopsis thaliana

Summary

AT4G24020 (NLP7) in Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a NIN-like protein 7 transcription factor characterized by RWP-RK, GAF, and PB1 domains. It localizes to the nucleus and is associated with DNA-binding transcription activator activity. NLP7 is associated with nitrate metabolism, assimilation, import, and response, as well as nitrogen compound transport, amino acid activation, and nucleotide metabolism. The gene has been linked to biomass, lateral root growth and development, root branching, root meristem development, shoot growth, vegetative growth time, flowering time, and shoot fresh weight. Associations also include nitrate and nitrogen content, sensitivity, uptake, and signaling, along with responses to drought, cold, salt stress, submergence, ABA, and sucrose tolerance. Additionally, NLP7 is connected to photosynthesis, light energy utilization, fungal pathogen resistance, and protein content.
