*ERF protein OsDERF1 as a '''transcriptional activator''' directly interacts with GCC box, resulting in the expression of rice repressors ''OsERF3'' and ''OsAP2-39'' (Figure 1).

*Overexpression of ''OsDERF1'' (OE)
 
*RNA interference ''OsDERF1'' rice/knockdown of ''OsDERF1''(RI)
 
*RI '''seedling''' significantly '''decreased''' while OE lines '''enhanced malondialdehyde''' (MDA) '''accumulation under PEG treatment''', an end product of membrane lipid peroxidation, indicating that ''OsDERF1'' '''positive affects the production of oxidative stress'''.
 
*OE seedlings had '''reduced expression''' (while RI lines showed '''enhanced expression''') of '''ethylene synthesis genes''', thereby resulting in '''changes in ethylene production'''.
 
*OE led to '''reduced tolerance to drought''' stress in rice at '''seedling stage''', while RI expression conferred '''enhanced tolerance''' at '''seedling''' and '''tillering stages'''. This regulation was supported by negative modulation in osmotic adjustment response.
 
*Interestingly, 979 genes showed '''two fold increases''' in OE lines compared to Nipponbare, suggesting that overexpression of ''OsDERF1'' can '''activate''' the expression of a large number of genes.
 
 
 
===Expression===
 
*The expression of ''OsDERF1'' is '''induced by dehydration''', '''ABA''' and '''ethylene precursor ACC'''<ref name="ref1"/>:
 
**The expression of ''OsDERF1'' was '''highly induced by ACC''' treatment at 1 h, and reached maximum induction at 2 h, then '''decreased'''.  
 
**The transcripts of ''OsDERF1'' in '''response to dehydration''' were '''quickly peaked''' at 0.5 h then '''decreased'''. Interestingly, the transcripts of ''OsDERF1'' showed a second increase and peaked after dehydration induction for 3 h.
 
**The expression of ''OsDERF1'' obviously '''increased''' and '''peaked''' after '''ABA treatment''' for 1 h.
 
**''OsDERF1'' expression '''did not significantly alter''' when seedlings were subjected to salt and cold, indicating that ''OsDERF1'' might be '''associated with ethylene'''- and '''ABA-related drought response'''.  
 
*Overexpression of ''OsERF3''/''OsAP2-39'' '''suppressed ethylene synthesis'''. The transcripts of ''OsDERF1'' were '''highly expressed in seedling roots''' and '''sheaths''', compared to seedling leaves, whereas the expression of ''OsDERF1'' was '''mainly detected in leaves''', '''sheaths''', '''stems''', and in '''flowers''' during '''flowering stages''', indicating that the ''OsDERF1'' might '''mainly function''' at the '''tissues''' as the '''transcriptional expression'''<ref name="ref1"/>.
