Table 2 Putative functions for conserved long AARs in Arabidopsis
From: Comprehensive analysis of tandem amino acid repeats from ten angiosperm genomes
Protein | Type | Description (gene/AAR) | Clue |
|---|---|---|---|
AT3G24650.1 | S | ABI3 is a key component of the ABA signal transduction pathway./See text for details of AAR function. | Biochemical [45] |
AT1G43850.1 | Q | SEU, together with LUG (LEUNIG), controls the development of several organs./See text for details of AAR function. | Phenotypic [46] |
AT4G32551.1 | Q | LUG, see above./The AAR is thought to be involved in the assembly of transcriptional co-repressors. | Speculation only [47] |
AT5G67470.1 | P | FH6 (FORMIN HOMOLOG 6) binds profilin and is involved in actin-nucleating activity./The AAR may directly contribute to its binding activity. | Speculation only [48] |
AT1G25540.1 | Q | PFT1 (PHYTOCHROME AND FLOWERING TIME 1) is a transcription factor that controls the flowering time./The AAR may be involved in transcriptional activation. | Speculation only [49] |
