TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a SWI/SWF nuclear-localized chromatin remodeling factor of the CHD3 group. Involved in post-germination repression of embryonic development. Acts with GA to establish repression of embryonic genes upon germination. Protein preferentially accumulates in differentiating tissues. Loss of function alleles are associated with expression of embryonic traits in adult plants and derepression of embryonic genes such as PHEROS1. Is an extragenic suppressor of slr2 (SSL2). Mutations in PKL (SSL2) restores lateral root formation in the slr2 mutant slr-1. It was proposed that PKL/SSL2-mediated chromatin remodeling negatively regulates auxin-mediated LR formation in Arabidopsis. The mRNA is cell-to-cell mobile. |
