Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os06g0597500 <=> sped1-D,SPED1
Function
- sped1-D encodes a pentatricopeptide repeat protein.
- sped1-D may prompt the shortening of pedicels and secondary branches by blocking the action of GID1L2, RFL, and Wox3.
- Overexpression of sped1-D in Arabidopsis resulted in the shortening of pedicels and clusters of siliques, which indicates that the function of sped1-D is highly conserved in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants.
- sped1-D promotes the shortening of pedicels and secondary branches, perhaps through the CLV-WUS pathway, and influences pollen fertility through the action of Rf1L.
Expression
- SPED 1 or sped1-D was constitutively expressed in young inflorescences and other tissues or organs.
- However, sped1-D had some effects on the expression of other genes associated with flower development.
Subcellular localization
- Subcellular localization indicates that the SPED1-YFP and sped1-D-YFP fusion proteins are mainly targeted to the cytoplasm
You can also add sub-section(s) at will.
