Protein
EPIDERMAL PATTERNING FACTOR-like protein 5
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Controls stomatal patterning. Mediates differentiation of stomatal lineage cells to pavement cells and stomatal development inhibition (PubMed:23748792). TMM (AC Q9SSD1) functions to dampen or block CLL1 signaling. Acts as growth-regulatory ligand for ERECTA family receptors. Promotes fruit growth and fertility (PubMed:22474391).
Similarity
Belongs to the plant cysteine rich small secretory peptide family. Epidermal patterning factor subfamily.
