UniProt functional annotation for Q6YWF1

UniProt code: Q6YWF1.

Organism: Oryza sativa subsp. japonica (Rice).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; Liliopsida; Poales; Poaceae; BOP clade; Oryzoideae; Oryzeae; Oryzinae; Oryza; Oryza sativa.
 
Function: Mediates the transient calcium-dependent interaction of PYR/PYL/RCAR abscisic acid (ABA) receptors with the plasma membrane and thus regulates ABA sensitivity (By similarity). Stimulates the GTPase/ATPase activities of YCHF1, and regulates its subcellular localization (PubMed:19086295, PubMed:20876569, PubMed:23550829). Binds phospholipids in a Ca(2+)-independent manner (PubMed:20876569). Promotes tolerance towards salinity stress by limiting the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (PubMed:19086295, PubMed:23550829). Promotes resistance to bacterial pathogens, such as Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000 (PubMed:19086295). Binding to YCHF1 is required for its role in stimulating defense responses and the ability to alleviate salt stress (PubMed:26286751). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9LVH4, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19086295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23550829, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26286751}.
 
Subunit: Binds to PYR/PYL/RCAR abscisic acid intracellular receptors in an ABA-independent manner, both at the plasma membrane and in the nucleus (By similarity). Interacts with YchF1 (PubMed:19086295, PubMed:23550829, PubMed:20876569). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9LVH4, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19086295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23550829}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23550829}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9LVH4}. Cytoplasm, cytosol {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23550829}. Note=Localized mainly in the cytosol under NaCl treatment, but translocates to the plasma membrane upon wounding. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20876569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23550829}.
Induction: By wounding. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19086295}.
Similarity: Belongs to the plant CAR protein family. {ECO:0000305}.
