Mains targets of ABC(E)genes

Protein function

Encodes a chromatin remodeling factor invovled in the regulation of different processes, including carpel differentiation.

Phenotype

Single mutant:
pkl single mutant displays multiple developmental defects, including abnormal root development, leaf defects, and delayed flowering. pkl single mutant displays embryonic defects after germination. [Li et al., 2005][Ogas et al., 1999][Ho et al., 2013]

Function:
Chromatin remodeling factor that represses the expression of embryonic trait genes (such as NFYB9/LEC1) upon and after seed germination and thus enables the developmental switch to post-germinative growth. Silences some MADS-box proteins such as PHE1 and PHE2. Plays a role during carpel differentiation. Regulates late processes in cytokinin signaling. [Data from UniProt]
