Gene: Sopen10g003680

General Information

Description A member of mei2-like gene family, predominantly plant-based family of genes encoding RNA binding proteins with characteristic presence of a highly conserved RNA binding motif first described in the mei2 gene of the fission yeast S. pombe. In silico analyses reveal nine mei2 -like genes in A. thaliana. They were grouped into four distinct clades, based on overall sequence similarity and subfamily-specific sequence elements. AML5 is a member of two sister clades of mei2-like gene family, AML1 through AML5, and belongs to the clade named ALM235. Among mei2-like genes, AML5 is the transcript with highest frequency of alternative splicing. Expression was detected during embryo development (heart and torpedo stage) and in vegetative and floral apices. | MEI2-like protein 5 (ML5) | FUNCTIONS IN: RNA binding, nucleotide binding, nucleic acid binding | LOCATED IN: cellular_component unknown | EXPRESSED IN: 30 plant structures | EXPRESSED DURING: 16 growth stages | CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: RNA recognition motif, RNP-1 , RNA recognition motif 2 , Nucleotide-binding, alpha-beta plait | BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: MEI2-like 3
