High impact information on AGL17

  • AGL12, AGL14, and AGL17 are all preferentially expressed in root tissues and therefore represent the only characterized MADS box genes expressed in roots [1].
  • The DEFH125 protein shows extensive similarity over the entire length to AGL17, a root-specific MADS-box protein of Arabidopsis [2].
  • Cladistic analysis arising from amino acid sequence comparison revealed that STMADS11 shows the highest similarity to STMADS16, another vegetative MADS-box gene from potato, and to the previously reported "orphan" genes AGL15 and AGL17 from Arabidopsis thaliana [3].
  • Evolutionary analysis among the MADS box family showed that nmhC5 is orthologous to a root-expressed clone in Arabidopsis thaliana, agl17, and that nmh7 is similar to the floral subfamily with AP3 (DefA)/PI (Glo) [4].
