NCBI Protein Information
hypothetical protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a predicted membrane protein. Similar sequences are widely distributed and conserved in plants, animals and protists but absent in fungi and prokaryotes. The sequence has no known motifs and no biological function has been assigned in any species. In Arabidopsis, it appears to be involved in the negative regulation of the response to ethylene, is localized to the Golgi and is a positive regulator of ETR1.

UniProt Comments
Function: Acts at an early step in the ethylene signaling pathway. Positively regulates ERT1, leading to the negative regulation of ethylene responses.Subunit structure: Interacts with ERT1 through a region corresponding to its ethylene-binding domain.0Subcellular location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein0. Tissue specificity: Strongly expressed in 1-4-day-old seedlings in the apical hook, cotyledons, root vascular tissue, root tip and root hairs, with little or no expression in the hypocotyl. In light-grown seedlings, expression could also be seen in the apex and young leaves, and disappeared from the cotyledons by 10 days. In mature plants, expressed in floral buds, the style of mature flowers, stems and the rachis.Induction: By ethylene.Disruption phenotype: Enhanced ethylene sensitivity.Sequence caution: The sequence AAC31229.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction. The sequence AAO39957.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Sequencing errors.The sequence BAC41901.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Sequencing errors.
