Protein function

Encodes a MADS-box transcription factor.

Phenotype

Overexpressor:
AP3 overexpressor shows abnormal flower development: carpels are converted into stamens. [Jack et al., 1994]

Single mutant:
ap3 single mutant shows abnormal flower development. [Bowman et al., 1989]

Function:
Probable transcription factor involved in the genetic control of flower development. Is required for normal development of petals and stamens in the wild-type flower. Forms a heterodimer with PISTILLATA that is required for autoregulation of both AP3 and PI genes. AP3/PI heterodimer interacts with APETALA1 or SEPALLATA3 to form a ternary complex that could be responsible for the regulation of the genes involved in the flower development. AP3/PI heterodimer activates the expression of NAP. [Data from UniProt]
