Involved in blue light response signaling pathway; interacts with the blue light photoreceptor NPH1.Null mutations abolish phototrophic responses of etiolated seedlings to low fluence blue light. Protein contains multiple protein-protein interaction domains.
AtTCP14 (TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCLOIDEA and PCF (TCP) 14)
Encodes a transcription factor AtTCP14 that regulates seed germination. AtTCP14 shows elevated expression level just prior to germination. AtTCP14 is predominantly expressed in the vascular tissue of the embryo, and affects gene expression in radicles in a non-cell-autonomous manner.

Encodes a GPCR-type G protein receptor with nine predicted transmembrane domains. The protein binds abscisic acid (ABA) and is predicted to function as an ABA receptor. It has GTP-binding and GTPase activity and binds to ABA more effectively in the presence of GDP. GTG2 binds to GPA1, the alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein. GPA1 (in its GTP-bound state) affects the GTP binding and GTPase activity of GTG2 and may act to down-regulate GTG2 binding to ABA. GTG2 is widely expressed throughout the plant and appears to be involved in the regulation of several ABA-dependent responses including seed germination, plant development, and promotion of stomatal closure. GTG2 transcript levels do not appear to change in response to ABA or abiotic stresses.
