What's a GeneRIF?

Data show that the light-inducible AHL proteins ESCAROLA (ESC)/AHL27 and SUPPRESSOR OF PHYTOCHROME B-4 #3 (SOB3)/AHL29 bind directly to an scaffold/matrix attachment regions (S/MARs) region of the YUCCA 9 (YUC9) promoter and suppress its expression to inhibit hypocotyl growth in light-grown seedlings.
Title: Coordination of matrix attachment and ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling regulate auxin biosynthesis and Arabidopsis hypocotyl elongation.
These data indicate that SOB3 and ESC act redundantly to modulate hypocotyl growth inhibition in response to light.
Title: The AT-hook-containing proteins SOB3/AHL29 and ESC/AHL27 are negative modulators of hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis.
