GLABRA2 regulates gene expression via its own EAR-motif mediated recruitment of the TPL/TPR corepressors

The Arabidopsis HD-Zip IV transcription factor GLABRA2 (GL2) displays dual regulatory capabilities, as an activator and repressor of genes that mediate cell-type differentiation of the epidermis. GL2 binds L1 box elements in the promoters of its target genes; however, the mechanisms by which it controls gene expression...
