Abstract

This entry represents a group of plant Rho GTPase-activating proteins, including RopGAP1-5 from Arabidopsis. RopGAP4 is a Rop deactivator, elevates ADH expression in response to oxygen deprivation but decreases tolerance to stress [ 1 ]. RopGAP3 and RopGAP4 mediate local activation of ARAC10/ROP11 to initiate the distinct pattern of secondary cell walls in xylem cells [ 2 ].
