| Function |
Transcription factor that regulates tissue boundaries and asymmetric cell division by a rapid up-regulation of 'SCARECROW' (SCR), thus controlling the nuclear localization of 'SHORT-ROOT' (SHR) and restricting its action(PubMed:17785527). Required for radial patterning and stem cell maintenance(PubMed:17785527). Counteracted by 'MAGPIE' (MGP)(PubMed:17785527). Binds to the SCR and MGP promoter sequences (PubMed:21935722). Controls position-dependent signals that regulate epidermal-cell-type patterning (PubMed:20356954). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17785527, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20356954, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21935722}.
