Short Name | CLE1/3/4 |
description | This entry includes CLAVATA3/ESR (CLE)-related proteins 1/3/4 (CLE1/3/4).The CLE proteins share a C-terminal CLE domain with CLV3, a small secreted polypeptide that is active as a ligand and has a function in shoot apical meristem maintenance []. In general, the CLE-related proteins are C-terminally processed to generate an active CLE peptide []. These small secreted peptide hormones then function in a variety of developmental and physiological processes [, ]. CLV3 and other A-type CLE peptides are involved in the suppression of stem cell development in root and shoot development, in contrast to the B-type CLE peptides, CLE41 and CLE44, in the case of Arabidopsis, which are not []. |
