The core ABA signaling pathway is shown in the figure to the left. When the ABA level in the cytosol is low, the ABA receptor (R) is an unliganded dimer<ref>PMID:19933100</ref><ref>PMID:23265948</ref> (monomer shown), and the SNRK2 protein kinase (K) is bound to a protein phosphatase 2C (P) in a complex (K-P) in which the kinase is dephosphorylated and inactivated by the phosphatase. When the ABA level rises ABA binds to the ABA receptor (R)<ref>PMID:19893533</ref><ref>PMID:19407143</ref><ref>PMID:19407142</ref>. The activated receptor (R<sup>.</sup>ABA) binds to a protein phosphatase 2C<ref>PMID:19624469</ref> (R<sup>.</sup>ABA-P), and frees the protein kinase to be activated by autophosphorylation or phosphorylation by another protein kinase. Activation of SnRK2.6/OST1/SRK2E leads to phosphorylation of: 1) ion channels SLAC1<ref>PMID: 19955405</ref> and KAT1<ref>PMID:19785574</ref> in guard cells and stomatal closure; 2) transcription factor ABI5<ref name = "Nakashima2009"/> in seeds/seedlings and dormancy/growth arrest; or 3) phosphorylation of transcription factor AREB/ABF <ref>PMID: 16446457</ref><ref name = "Fujii2007"/> in vegetative tissue and stress tolerance and growth regulation. | |||
