Activity

  • Function:  Extracellular signal peptide secreted by differentiated root cells that regulates root cell fate. Acts with ACR4 as a ligand-receptor pair in a signal transduction pathway, coordinating movement of the root tip and organization of cell divisions in the root meristem. Promotes cell differentiation in the distal root meristem in a dose-dependent manner, especially the transition from columella stem cells (CSC) daughters into columella cells (CCs). Induces ACR4 expression in root quiescent center (QC). Involved in WUX5 QC-specific expression pattern regulation.
