Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source Description
TAIREncodes a WUSCHEL-related homeobox gene family member with 65 amino acids in its homeodomain. Proteins in this family contain a sequence of eight residues (TLPLFPMH) downstream of the homeodomain called the WUS box. This protein also contains an acidic domain approximately 10 residues upstream of the WUS box. Part of the TDIF-TDR-WOX4 signaling pathway that plays a crucial role in the maintenance of the vascular meristem organization during secondary growth.
UniProtTranscription factor which may be involved in developmental processes. {ECO:0000250}.

  1. Arabidopsis plants with down-regulated WOX4 expression exhibit reduced vascular development and overaccumulate undifferentiated ground tissue.
    [PMID: 20044450]
  2. WOX4 is upregulated very rapidly in response to TDIF application in a TDR-dependent manner.
    [PMID: 20729381]
  3. Auxin-dependent stimulation of cambium activity depends on WOX4 and its upstream regulator PXY.
    [PMID: 21926336]
  4. WOX4 acts redundantly with WOX14 in the regulation of vascular cell division, but not in regulating vascular organisation
