EPIDERMAL PATTERNING FACTOR 2 | Brief Description | Putative membrane lipoprotein |
| TAIR Computational Description | Putative membrane lipoprotein;(source:Araport11) |
| TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a secretory peptide EPF2 expressed in proliferating cells of the stomatal lineage, known as meristemoids, and in guard mother cells, the progenitors of stomata. Controls asymmetric cell divisions during stomatal development. EPF2 is related to EPF1, also involved in stomatal development. Its transcript levels change after inducing MUTE expression in a mute background. EPF2 binds to the ER receptor triggering MAPK activation that in turn inhibits stomatal development. EPF2 competes with STOMAGEN for binding to receptor protein kinases ER, and TMM. |
