Ethylene insensitive 3 (EIN3) proteins are a family of plant DNA-binding proteins that regulate transcription in response to the gaseous plant hormone ethylene, and are essential for ethylene-mediated responses including the triple response, cell growth inhibition, and accelerated senescence. This entry represents the DNA-binding domain of EIN3 and EIN3-like proteins.
