Name | HIGH CAMBIAL ACTIVITY2 | Brief Description | Dof-type zinc finger DNA-binding family protein |

TAIR Curator Summary | HCA2 induces the formation of interfascicular cambium and regulates vascular tissue development in the aerial parts of the plant. Evidence from both gain of function and dominant negative alleles. PEAR protein involved in the formation of a short-range concentration gradient that peaks at protophloem sieve elements, and activates gene expression that promotes radial growth. Locally promotes transcription of inhibitory HD-ZIP III genes, and thereby establishes a negative-feedback loop that forms a robust boundary that demarks the zone of cell division. |
