TAIR Computational Description | WD-40 repeat family protein / small nuclear ribonucleoprotein Prp4p-like protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes LACHESIS (LIS), a protein with seven WD40 repeats. LIS is homologous to the yeast splicing factor PRP4 which is associated with the U4/U6 complex of the spliceosome. LIS is involved in a mechanism that prevents accessory cells from adopting gametic cell fate: lis mutant forms supernumerary egg cells. |
