UniProtKB accession:  F4JP36

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Required for male fertility (PubMed:17079265, PubMed:20333238). Plays a role in pollen tube guidance and successful gamete attachment (PubMed:17079265). Essential for the fusion of gametes during double fertilization, where one male gamete fuses with the egg to produce a zygote, and another male gamete fuses with the central cell to produce the endosperm (PubMed:17079265, PubMed:20333238, PubMed:21209845). Mediates the fusion of cell membranes (PubMed:28137780). Not required for pollen tube outgrowth (PubMed:17079265, PubMed:20333238).
