TAIR Computational Description | sec7 domain-containing protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a GDP/GTP exchange factor for small G-proteins of the ADP ribosylation factor (RAF) class, and as regulator of intracellular trafficking. Homologous to Sec7p and YEC2 from yeast. Involved in the specification of apical-basal pattern formation. Essential for cell division, expansion and adhesion. It appears that heteotypic binding between the DCB and C-terminal domains of two GNOM proteins is required for membrane association, however, GNOM appears to exist predominantly as a heterodimer formed through DCB-DCB interactions. BFA inhibits GNOM trafficking and BFA resistant lines are more resistant to cold stress. |
