Regulatory cascade involving transcriptional and N-end rule pathways in rice under submergence.

Article Synopsis
- The rice gene encoding group VII ethylene response factor (ERFVII) is crucial for rice survival during flooding and other abiotic stresses, with five ERFVII factors regulating hypoxic responses.
- The destabilizing N terminus of ERFVIIs typically leads to their degradation under normal conditions, but these proteins stabilize under hypoxia to mediate hypoxia-responsive signaling, while the unique SUB1A-1 does not follow this degradation pathway.
- Research indicates that ERF66 and ERF67 are up-regulated by SUB1A-1 during submergence and are involved in enhancing submergence tolerance by activating anaerobic survival genes, forming a regulatory network that differentiates flooding from other stresses.
