Source Description
TAIREncodes MADS-box containing FLC paralog. Five splice variants have been identified but not characterized with respect to expression patterns and/or differing function. Overexpression of the gene in the Landsberg ecotype leads to a delay in flowering, transcript levels of MAF4 are reduced after a 6 week vernalization.
UniProtTranscription factor involved in the negative regulation of flowering time in short days, probably through the photoperiodic and vernalization pathways. Prevents premature flowering, particularly in the cv. Landsberg erecta background. In non-inductive photoperiods (e.g. short days), required for flowering through VIL2-mediated maintenance of the epigenetically repressed state of MAF5 via H3K9me2 and plant homeodomain / polycomb repressive complex 2 (PHD-PRC2)-dependent H3K27me3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12724541, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18798874, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18852898, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20837520, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21150261, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21175890, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21398257, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22378382}.
