UniProt functional annotation for Q9ZWM9

UniProt code: Q9ZWM9.

Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis.
 
Function: Binds specifically to bipartite recognition sequences composed of two unrelated motifs, 5'-CAACA-3' and 5'-CACCTG-3'. May function as negative regulator of plant growth and development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15040885, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9862967}.
 
Subunit: Monomer.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in all tissues examined: Roots, rosette leaves, cauline leaves, inflorescence stems, flowers and siliques. Highest expression in roots and rosette leaves. Very low expression in flowers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9862967}.
Induction: Down-regulated by brassinosteroid and zeatin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15040885}.
Domain: Contains two distinct DNA-binding domains. One is located in the N-terminal region and binds to the 5'-CAACA-3' motif. The second is located in the C-terminal region and binds to the 5'-CACCTG-3' motif.
Similarity: Belongs to the AP2/ERF transcription factor family. RAV subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
