| Induction | INDUCTION: Expression activated by developmentally controlled senescence pathways leading to programmed cell death (PCD), probably by epigenetic regulation via histone H3 deacetylation and by WRKY53 activation (PubMed:10579486, PubMed:10380810, PubMed:18212027, PubMed:18721318, PubMed:19143996). Strongly up-regulated upon abscisic acid treatment (PubMed:9617813). Repressed by cytokinin, auxin (IAA), and sugars (sucrose, glucose and fructose) which can thus repress developmental senescence (PubMed:10579486). The senescence-associated accumulation is salicylic acid- (SA) dependent (PubMed:10972893). Induced slightly in outer leaves by UV-B exposure (PubMed:11432956). Expressed in late stages of heavy-metal- (e.g. copper) and hypersensitive response- (HR) mediated lesions, in chlorotic tissues surrounding the necrosis (PubMed:10380810). The induction by cadmium is nitric oxyde- (NO) dependent and occurs one day before cell death (PubMed:19261736). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10380810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10579486, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10972893, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11432956, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18212027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18721318, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19143996, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19261736, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9617813}. | 
| Subcellular Location | SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Vacuole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15743448}. Note=Localized in senescence-associated vacuoles (SAVs) with intense proteolytic activity that develop in the peripheral cytoplasm of mesophyll and guard cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15743448}. |
