PEBP (phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein) family protein;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary:
FT, together with LFY, promotes flowering and is antagonistic with its homologous gene, TERMINAL FLOWER1 (TFL1). Together with TSF, it plays an antagonistic role to TFL1 in the determination of inflorescence meristem identity. FT is expressed in leaves and is induced by long day treatment. Either the FT mRNA or protein is translocated to the shoot apex where it induces its own expression. Recent data suggests that FT protein acts as a long-range signal. FT is a target of CO and acts upstream of SOC1.
