Source Description
UniprotTISSUE SPECIFICITY: Mostly expressed in siliques, and, to a lower extent, in growing root hairs, leaves, stems, and flowers. Present in abaxial epidermal cells, predominantly in guard cells, pavement cells, and meristemoids. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21169508, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9501260}.
Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source Description
TAIREncodes a plant transcriptional activator that contains two separate, but similar, trihelix DNA-binding domains, similar to GT-2. Gene is expressed in all aerial parts of the plant, with higher level of expression in siliques. At-GTL2 was thought to be a duplicated copy of this gene but is likely to be a cloning artefact, the result of a chimeric clone. Regulates ploidy-dependent cell growth in trichome.
UniProtTranscription repressor that binds specific DNA sequence such as GT3 box 5'-GGTAAA-3' in the SDD1 promoter. Negative regulator of water use efficiency (WUE) via the promotion of stomatal density and distribution by the transcription repression of SDD1. Regulates the expression of several cell cycle genes and endoreduplication, especially in trichomes where it prevents ploidy-dependent plant cell growth. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19717615, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21169508}.

  1. Study provides the genetic evidence for the requirement of transcriptional regulation in the repression of ploidy-dependent plant cell growth as well as for an involvement of GTL trihelix proteins in this regulation.
    [PMID: 19717615]
  2. Data identified Arabidopsis GT2-LIKE 1 (GTL1) as a transcriptional repressor of STOMATAL DENSITY AND DISTRIBUTION 1 (SDD1), a negative regulator of stomatal density.
    [PMID: 21691149]
  3. GTL1 actively terminates ploidy-dependent cell growth and its developmentally regulated expression is one of the key determinants of cell size in Arabidopsis leaf hair cells (trichomes).
    [PMID: 23143274]
  4. A trihelix transcription factor GT-2-LIKE1 (GTL1) and its homolog DF1 repress root hair growth. Transcriptional data, combined with genome-wide chromatin-binding data, show that GTL1 and DF1 directly bind the RSL4 promoter and regulate its expression to repress root hair growth.
