TAIR Computational Description | POX (plant homeobox) family protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Homeodomain protein required for ovule identity.Loss of function mutations show homeotic conversion of integuments to carpels.Forms heterodimers with STM and KNAT1. Interacts with AG-SEP heterodimers is thought to restrict WUS expression. BEL interacts with MADS box dimers composed of SEP1(or SEP3) and AG, SHP1, SHP2 and STK. The interaction of BEL1 with AG-SEP3 is required for proper integument development and specification of integument identity. |
