Source Description
TAIRFloral homeotic gene encoding a MADS domain transcription factor. Required for the specification of petal and stamen identities.
UniProtProbable transcription factor involved in the genetic control of flower development. Is required for normal development of petals and stamens in the wild-type flower. Forms a heterodimer with APETALA3 that is required for autoregulation of both AP3 and PI genes. AP3/PI heterodimer interacts with APETALA1 or SEPALLATA3 to form a ternary complex that could be responsible for the regulation of the genes involved in the flower development. AP3/PI heterodimer activates the expression of NAP. AP3/PI prevents GATA22/GNL and GATA21/GNC expression (PubMed:18417639). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18417639, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8565821, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9489703}.
