Protein function
Encodes a MADS-box transcription factor.
Phenotype
Overexpressor: AP1 overexpressor is early flowering and shows transformation of apical and lateral shoots into flowers.
[Mandel et al., 1995] Single mutant: ap1 single mutant shows abnormal flower development: sepals are converted into bracts.
[Irish et al., 1990] Function:Transcription factor that promotes early floral meristem identity in synergy with LEAFY. Is required subsequently for the transition of an inflorescence meristem into a floral meristem. Is indispensable for normal development of sepals and petals in flowers. Regulates positively the B class homeotic proteins APETALA3 and PISTILLATA with the cooperation of LEAFY and UFO. Interacts with SEPALLATA3 or AP3/PI heterodimer to form complexes that could be involved in genes regulation during floral meristem development. Regulates positively AGAMOUS in cooperation with LEAFY. Displays a redundant function with CAULIFLOWER in the up-regulation of LEAFY. Together with AGL24 and SVP, controls the identity of the floral meristem and regulates expression of class B, C and E genes. Represses flowering time genes AGL24, SVP and SOC1 in emerging floral meristems.
