BES1 & BZR1 give BR response

Phosphorylated BIN2 inhibits BES1 & BZR1 

Phosphorylated BIN2 is degraded by BSU1 

BSK proteins activate BSU1 phosphatase.

BRI1–BAK1-BR complex activates BSK

DE-ETIOLATED2 (DET2) gene, which encodes a brassinosteroid biosynthetic gene. Det2 loss-of-function mutants have reduced levels of brassinosteroids, resulting in a de-etiolated appearance of the seedling even when grown in the dark

Brassinosteroids are also required for promotion of cell

elongation by gibberellins, and gibberellin-induced degradation

of the DELLA repressor enhances the brassinosteroid response.

OsGSR1, a member of the gibberellic acid–stimulated gene family, acts as a positive regulator of both the gibberellic acid response and brassinosteroid biosynthesis.
