Appears in the following schemes

Temperature pathway

Protein function

Encodes a bHLH transcription factor.

Phenotype

Multiple mutant:
pif4;pif5 multiple mutant is late flowering under 12h-light-12h-dark photoperiod at any temperature, even though the phenotype is enhanced at high temperatures. (No data under SD or LD conditions.) [Thines et al., 2014]

Single mutant:
pif5 single mutant is late flowering under 28C-warm conditions and 12h-light - 12h-dark photoperiod. (No data under SD or LD conditions.) [Thines et al., 2014]

Remarks:
PIF5 acts negatively in the PHYB signaling pathway. [Khanna et al., 2007]

Function:
Transcription factor acting negatively in the phytochrome B signaling pathway to promote the shade-avoidance response. Regulates PHYB abundance at the post-transcriptional level, possibly via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Promotes ethylene activity in the dark. May regulate the expression of a subset of genes by binding to the G-box motif. Might be involved in the integration of light-signals to control both circadian and photomorphogenic processes.
