Transcriptional regulation of tetrapyrrole biosynthetic genes explains abscisic acid-induced heme accumulation in the unicellular red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae
Abscisic acid (ABA), a pivotal phytohormone that is synthesized in response to abiotic stresses and other environmental changes, induces various physiological responses. Heme, in its unbound form, has a positive signaling role in cell-cycle initiation in Cyanidioschyzon merolae. ABA induces heme acc...
