WRKY70 is an Arabidopsis group III WRKY DNA-binding transcription factor that acts in the nucleus to integrate salicylic-acid, jasmonic-acid, defense, and senescence transcriptional programs. Its core role is sequence-specific transcriptional regulation of target genes: it generally promotes SA-associated defense outputs, represses subsets of JA/ethylene-responsive defense genes, and cooperates with related WRKY factors as a negative regulator of developmental leaf senescence. Its many roles in pathogen, osmotic, stomatal, hormone, and metabolite responses are downstream, context-specific outputs of this transcriptional regulator rather than separate molecular functions.
