| AT5G44610 | Encodes a protein with seven repeated VEEKK motifs. RNAi and overexpression experiments suggest that the gene is not involved in cell division but might be consequential for cell shape of epidermal and cortical cells. The protein encoded by this gene binds to cortical microtubules and inhibits tubulin polymerization. Associates to the plasma membrane and interacts with calmodulin and phosphatidylinositol phosphates, indicating an involvement in cellular signal transduction. Expression is enhanced by abiotic and hormonal factors. Induced during senescence. microtubule-associated protein 18 microtubule-associated protein 18 (MAP18); FUNCTIONS IN: microtubule binding, calmodulin binding, phosphatidylinositol binding; INVOLVED IN: in 9 processes; LOCATED IN: cortical microtubule, plasma membrane; EXPRESSED IN: 12 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: L mature pollen stage, M germinated pollen stage, 4 anthesis; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: DREPP plasma membrane polypeptide (InterPro:IPR008469); Has 30201 Blast hits to 17322 proteins in 780 species: Archae - 12; Bacteria - 1396; Metazoa - 17338; Fungi - 3422; Plants - 5037; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 2996 (source: NCBI BLink). | 5 | - | View |
