TAIR Curator Summary | NAC-domain protein. Expressed in root cap stem cells, where it promotes periclinal root cap-forming divisions. Involved in a regulatory feedback loop with SMB. FEZ activates SMB in hte root cap daughter cells soon after division, and SMB in turn represses FEZ expression in these cells, thereby preventing further stem cell divisions. |
