AT2G20120 | Encodes an integral membrane protein of unknown function, highly conserved between plants and bacteria; is likely to be involved in a mechanism that negatively regulates the differentiation of vascular tissue in the stem. Mutants display a dramatic increase in vascular tissue development in the stem in place of the interfascicular region that normally separates the vascular bundles. Protein of unknown function (DUF502) CONTINUOUS VASCULAR RING (COV1); FUNCTIONS IN: molecular_function unknown; INVOLVED IN: stem vascular tissue pattern formation; LOCATED IN: integral to membrane; EXPRESSED IN: stem, root, flower, leaf; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Protein of unknown function DUF502 (InterPro:IPR007462); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: like COV 1 (TAIR:AT2G20130.1); 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). | 2 | - | View |
