CAM7, a member of CaM family in Arabidopsis, acts as a transcriptional regulator and enhances photomorphogenic growth and light regulated gene expression under various light conditions. HY5, a bZIP transcription factor, promotes photomorphogenesis at multiple wavelengths of light including far red, red, and blue light. Very recently, it has been shown that CAM7 and HY5 directly interact with the HY5 promoter to regulate the transcriptional activity of HY5 during Arabidopsis seedling development. In this study, we have investigated the root phenotype of cam7 hy5 double mutants and shown that CAM7 and HY5 genetically interact to control the root growth. We have further shown an interdependent function of HY5 and CAM7 in abscisic acid (ABA) responsiveness.

Calmodulin7 (CAM7) is a key transcription factor of Arabidopsis seedling development. CAM7 works together with HY5 bZIP protein to promote photomorphogenesis at various wavelengths of light. In this study, we show that AtMYB4, identified from a yeast two-hybrid screen, physically interacts with CAM7 and works as a positive regulator of photomorphogenesis at various wavelengths of light.

Arabidopsis thaliana CALMODULIN7 (CAM7), a unique member of the calmodulin gene family, plays a crucial role as a transcriptional regulator in seedling development. The elongated HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5) bZIP protein, an integrator of multiple signaling pathways, also plays an important role in photomorphogenic growth and light-regulated gene expression. CAM7 acts synergistically with HY5 to promote photomorphogenesis at various wavelengths of light.

Although calmodulin (CaM) is known to play multiple regulatory roles in eukaryotes, its direct function as transcriptional regulator is unknown. Furthermore, the physiological functions of CaM are largely unknown in plants. Here, we show that one of the four Arabidopsis thaliana CaM isoforms, CAM7, is a transcriptional regulator that directly interacts with the promoters of light-inducible genes and promotes photomorphogenesis.
