Gene Details
- Gene ID: Zm00001eb284010
- Gene Symbol: ZAG1;ZmMADS37
- Gene Name: Zea AGAMOUS homolog1
- Species: Zea mays
- NCBI ID:
- Protein Sequence: Not Available
- Genome Version: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
Functions:
- ZAG1 encodes a putative polypeptide of 286 amino acids having 61% identity with the AGAMOUS (AG) protein. Through a stretch of 56 amino acids, constituting the MADS domain, the two proteins are identical except for two conservative amino acid substitutions.
- Like AG, ZAG1 RNA accumulates early in stamen and carpel primordia.
- The ZAG1 protein from in vitro translations binds to a consensus target site that is recognized by the AG protein. These data suggest that maize contains a homolog of the Arabidopsis floral identity gene AG and that this gene is conserved in sequence and function.
