Protein
EPIDERMAL PATTERNING FACTOR-like protein 9
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Stomagen: Positively regulates stomatal density and patterning. Acts by competing with EPF2 (AC Q8LC53) for the same receptors, ERECTA (AC Q42371) and TMM (AC Q9SSD1). Not cleaved by the protease CRSP (AC Q9LNU1) (PubMed:25043023).
Similarity
Belongs to the plant cysteine rich small secretory peptide family. Epidermal patterning factor subfamily.
