UniProtKB accession:  Q9CAD0

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Transcription activator, when associated with MYB75/PAP1, MYB90/PAP2 or TT2. Involved in epidermal cell fate specification. Negatively regulates stomata formation but promotes trichome formation. Together with MYB66/WER, promotes the formation of non-hair cells in root epidermis cells in the N position. Whereas together with CPC, promotes the formation of hair cells in root epidermis cells in the H position by inhibiting non-hair cell formation. Seems also to play a role in the activation of anthocyanin biosynthesis, probably together with MYB75/PAP1. Involved in seed mucilage production. Activates the transcription of GL2.
