Function

[MYC3_ARATH] Transcription factor involved in tryptophan, jasmonic acid (JA) and other stress-responsive gene regulation. With MYC2 and MYC4, controls additively subsets of JA-dependent responses. Can form complexes with all known glucosinolate-related MYBs to regulate glucosinolate biosynthesis. Binds to the G-box (5'-CACGTG-3') of promoters. Activates multiple TIFY/JAZ promoters.^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]} [TI10A_ARATH] Repressor of jasmonate responses negatively regulated by the proteasome in an SCF(COI1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex-dependent manner. Jasmonoyl-isoleucine (JA-Ile) specifically promotes COI1-TIFY10A/JAZ1 interaction. Interacts with COI1 and inositol pentakisphosphate to form a high-affinity jasmonates coreceptor.^{[6] [7] [8]}
