Two novel DREB (dehydration-responsive element-binding protein) genes, designated as CiDREB1A and CiDREB1B, were cloned from chicory (Cichorium intybus). Both of these genes contained a conserved EREBP/AP2 domain and were classified into the A-1 subgroup of the DREB subfamily based on phylogenetic analysis. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that low temperature, but not ABA, greatly induced the expression of both CiDREB1 genes, suggesting that these genes are involved in ABA-independent stress signaling pathways. A subcellular localization assay revealed that both CiDREBs localized to the nucleus. In addition, we showed by yeast one-hybrid analysis that these two CiDREB proteins bind to the DRE motif of RD19A. These results suggest that CiDREB1A and CiDREB1B are important regulators of stress-responsive signaling in chicory.
