Represses photomorphogenesis and induces skotomorphogenesis in the dark. Contains a ring finger zinc-binding motif, a coiled-coil domain, and several WD-40 repeats, similar to G-beta proteins. The C-terminus has homology to TAFII80, a subunit of the TFIID component of the RNA polymerase II of Drosophila. Nuclear localization in the dark and cytoplasmic in the light.
Identified in a screen for mutations hypersensitive to red and blue light. Mutants have shorter hypocotyls. Encodes a nuclear localized protein with similarity to drought induced proteins. Contains a ZZ zinc finger domain which is thought to mediate protein-protein interactions.May be involved in red and blue light signal transduction.

Encodes a protein that binds to beta-sitosterol and localizes to the ER. The WFDE motif in ORP3a appears to be important for a direct interaction with PVA12 [Plant VAMP-Associated protein 12]. Mutation of this motif causes ORP3a to relocalize to the Golgi and cytosol. The interaction between PVA12 and ORP3a does not appear to be sterol-dependent.
Encodes a subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3), a multisubunit complex that is required for binding of mRNA to 40 S ribosomal subunits, stabilization of ternary complex binding to 40 S subunits, and dissociation of 40 and 60 S subunits.
Encodes a protein with pentacyclic triterpene synthase activity. In addition to the compounds lupeol, α-amyrin and bauerenol, this enzyme was also shown to produce two seco-triterpenes: α- and β-seco-amyrin.
Represents a plastid-encoded subunit of a NAD(P)H dehydrogenase complex. Its mRNA is edited at four positions. Translation data is not available for this gene.
The process of restoring DNA after damage. Genomes are subject to damage by chemical and physical agents in the environment (e.g. UV and ionizing radiations, chemical mutagens, fungal and bacterial toxins, etc.) and by free radicals or alkylating agents endogenously generated in metabolism. DNA is also damaged because of errors during its replication. A variety of different DNA repair pathways have been reported that include direct reversal, base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, photoreactivation, bypass, double-strand break repair pathway, and mismatch repair pathway.
A change from the vegetative to the reproductive phase as a result of detection of, or exposure to, a period of light or dark of a given length. The length of the period of light or dark required to initiate the change is set relative to a particular duration known as the 'critical day length'. The critical day length varies between species.
Shade avoidance is a set of responses that plants display when they are subjected to the shade of another plant. It often includes elongation, altered flowering time, increased apical dominance and altered partitioning of resources. Plants are able to distinguish between the shade of an inanimate object (e.g. a rock) and the shade of another plant due to the altered balance between red and far-red light in the shade of a plant; this balance between red and far-red light is perceived by phytochrome.
The chemical reactions and pathways involving anthocyanins, any member of a group of intensely colored soluble glycosides of anthocyanidins that occur in plants. They are responsible from most of the scarlet, purple, mauve and blue coloring in higher plants, especially of flowers.
