FT PEBP (phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein) family protein [Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress)] - Gene

Summary

Go to the top of the page Help

Gene symbol: FT
Gene description: PEBP (phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein) family protein
Primary source: Araport:AT1G65480
Locus tag: AT1G65480
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype: Columbia)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis
Also known as: F5I14.3; F5I14_3; FLOWERING LOCUS T; REDUCED STEM BRANCHING 8; RSB8
Summary: FT, together with LFY, promotes flowering and is antagonistic with its homologous gene, TERMINAL FLOWER1 (TFL1). FT is expressed in leaves and is induced by long day treatment. Either the FT mRNA or protein is translocated to the shoot apex where it induces its own expression. Recent data suggests that FT protein acts as a long-range signal. FT is a target of CO and acts upstream of SOC1.
