| Description | This entry include Protein BREVIS RADIX (BRX) and related proteins such as BRXL1-4 from plants. BRX has been identified through a natural loss-of-function allele in the Arabidopsis accession Umkirch-1 (Uk-1), and results in reduced root meristem size, reduced mature cell size, and thus reduced root growth [ ]. BRX has been shown to regulate the growth rate in both the root and shoot. It mediates cross-talk between the auxin and brassinosteroid pathways [, ].Despite the protein sequence similarity between Arabidopsis BRXL proteins, analysis of brx brx-like multiple mutants indicates that functional redundancy of BRXLs is limited [ ]. |
