Function
Probable transcription factor that acts together with OBE1 for the maintenance and/or establishment of both the shoot and root meristems, probably by controlling the expression of the meristem genes such as WUS, PLT1 and PLT2 and of genes required for auxin responses. Promotes cell meristematic activity via the WUSCHEL-CLAVATA pathway. Involved in the development of the basal pole and in auxin-mediated root and vascular development in the embryo. Confers sensitivity to turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) probably by promoting viral movement and multiplication via interaction with TuMV VPg.
