This paper identifies NIMIN1 as a multi-domain protein that regulates the transition from systemic acquired resistance to cell death in Arabidopsis by interacting with NPR1 and modulating hormone signaling.

This study shows that SA enhances the physical association between LENRV and N1/N2BD regions of tobacco NPR1, reconstituting a functional C-terminus that interacts with TGA transcription factors.
