Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Transcription factor. Interacts specifically with the W box (5'-(T)TGAC[CT]-3'), a frequently occurring elicitor-responsive cis-acting element. May regulate the early events of leaf senescence. Negatively regulates the expression of ESR/ESP.
Subunit structure	Interacts with ESR/ESP. Ref.7
Subcellular location	Nucleus.
Induction	By salicylic acid and strongly during leaf senescence. Down-regulated by jasmonate. Ref.7 Ref.1 Ref.6
Disruption phenotype	Retarded leaf senescence, but no effects on pathogen resistance. Ref.7
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the WRKY group III family. Contains 1 WRKY DNA-binding domain.
