Function

Acts as a peptide hormone recognized by receptors (e.g. RGI1 and RGI2) to trigger signaling events including the regulation of RITF1 expression and leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in roots to modulate meristem size. Signaling peptide (root growth factor) that maintains the postembryonic root stem cell niche in a PIN2-traffic dependent manner by regulating the expression levels and patterns of the transcription factor PLETHORA (PLT), mainly at the post-transcriptional level.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in root tips, only in the quiescent center and the columella stem cells

Protein Biology

Function

Acts as a peptide hormone recognized by receptors (e.g. RGI1 and RGI2) to trigger signaling events including the regulation of RITF1 expression and leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in roots to modulate meristem size (PubMed:31801996). Signaling peptide (root growth factor) that maintains the postembryonic root stem cell niche in a PIN2-traffic dependent manner by regulating the expression levels and patterns of the transcription factor PLETHORA (PLT), mainly at the post-transcriptional level (PubMed:20798316, PubMed:23370719). Maintains the postembryonic root stem cell niche by regulating the expression levels and patterns of the transcription factor PLETHORA (e.g. PLT1 and PLT2), mainly at the post-transcriptional level (PubMed:20798316). Influences circumferential cell number in the root meristem in response to Pi-deprivation (PubMed:25856240). Regulates the pattern of root growth and lateral root development by modulating the length and the number of cortical cells in the root apical meristem (RAM), and the anticlinal asymmetric cell divisions in lateral root initiation cells (PubMed:22307643, PubMed:23370719)

Subunit

Interacts with RGI1; this interaction triggers RGI1 phosphorylation and ubiquitination (PubMed:27229312). Binds to LRR receptor-like serine/threonine-protein kinases RGI1, RGI2 and RGI3 to trigger their dimerization with SERK proteins and subsequent signaling (PubMed:27001831, PubMed:27229311)
