摘 要:Dear Editor, Brassinosteroid (BR) is an important hormone and playscrucial roles in plant growth and development (Kim andWang, 2010). Genetics studies identify many componentsinvolving in BR signaling, including transcript factor BZR1(BRASSINAZOLE RESISTANT 1). BZR1 is dephosphorylated (Heet al., 2005) to regulate expression of target genes. A sin-gle amino acid mutation in BZR1 PEST domain results inenhanced binding and dephosphorylation by PP2A (PROTEINPHOSPHATASE 2A; Tang et al., 2011), leading to constitutivelyactivated BZR1 and enhanced BR signal in gain-of-functionmutant bzr1-1D. Although BR signal is well characterized inArabidopsis, how the components of BR signaling transduc-tion pathway are reclulated needs further illustrations.
