Kip-related protein (KRP) gene, encodes CDK (cyclin-dependent kinase) inhibitor (CKI), negative regulator of cell division. Binds to D type cyclins. A member of seven KRP genes found in Arabidopsis thaliana. Differential expression patterns for distinct KRPs were revealed by in situ hybridization. KRP6 appears to be targeted for degradation by RHF1a and RHF2a to allow mitotic divisions during gametogenesis. In addition, KRP6 transcript levels rise prior to and drop following the meitotic divisions of gametogenesis. Elevated levels of KRP6 negatively affect plant development and fertility. | 3 | - | View |
