Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Transcription factor required for quiescent center cells specification and maintenance of surrounding stem cells, and for the asymmetric cell division involved in radial pattern formation in roots. Essential for cell division but not differentiation of the ground tissue. Also required for normal shoot gravitropism. Regulates the radial organization of the shoot axial organs. Binds to the promoter of MGP, NUC, RLK and SCL3. Restricts SHR movment and sequesters it into the nucleus of the endodermis.
