PYR1-like 2
NCBI Summary
Encodes a member of the PYR (pyrabactin resistance)/PYL(PYR1-like)/RCAR (regulatory components of ABA receptor) family proteins with 14 members. PYR/PYL/RCAR family proteins function as abscisic acid sensors. Mediate ABA-dependent regulation of protein phosphatase 2Cs ABI1 and ABI2.

UniProt Comments
Receptor for abscisic acid (ABA) required for ABA-mediated responses such as stomatal closure and germination inhibition. Inhibits the activity of group-A protein phosphatases type 2C (PP2Cs) when activated by ABA (PubMed:19893533, PubMed:19898420, PubMed:23844015, PubMed:21658606). Can be activated by both (-)-ABA and (+)-ABA (PubMed:23844015).
