Temperature pathway
FLC regulation during a cold period

Protein function

Encodes a MADS-box transcription factor.

Phenotype

Remarks:
MAF2 is also regulated through alternative splicing events. [Rosloski et al., 2013]

Overexpressor:
MAF2 overexpressor is late flowering under both SD and LD conditions. [Ratcliffe et al., 2003][Rosloski et al., 2013]

Single mutant:
maf2 single mutant is early flowering under SD and LD conditions. [Ratcliffe et al., 2003][Rosloski et al., 2013][Gu et al., 2013][Kim et al., 2013]

Remarks:
MAF2 prevents flowering in response to short cold periods. [Ratcliffe et al., 2003]

Function:
Probable transcription factor that prevents vernalization by short periods of cold. Acts as a floral repressor. [Data from UniProt]
