AT3G54870 | MORPHOGENESIS OF ROOT HAIR 2 (MRH2); FUNCTIONS IN: microtubule binding, actin binding, microtubule motor activity; INVOLVED IN: root hair cell tip growth, root hair cell differentiation, regulation of microtubule polymerization or depolymerization; LOCATED IN: chloroplast; EXPRESSED IN: 18 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: 7 growth stages; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Kinesin, motor region, conserved site (InterPro:IPR019821), Armadillo-like helical (InterPro:IPR011989), Armadillo (InterPro:IPR000225), Armadillo-type fold (InterPro:IPR016024), Kinesin, motor domain (InterPro:IPR001752); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: armadillo repeat kinesin 3 (TAIR:AT1G12430.1); Has 140801 Blast hits to 75642 proteins in 3085 species: Archae - 1274; Bacteria - 19600; Metazoa - 61665; Fungi - 11208; Plants - 7696; Viruses - 409; Other Eukaryotes - 38949 (source: NCBI BLink). Armadillo/beta-catenin repeat family protein / kinesin motor family protein Armadillo-repeat containing kinesin-related protein. Plays a role during transition to root-hair tip growth.Mutants have short, branched root hairs and an excess of endoplasmic microtubles. Phenotype suggests ARK1 plays a role in modulating microtubule depolymerization during root hair tip growth. | 3 | + | View |
