The SPR1 gene encodes a plant-specific 12-kD protein which has a repeated motif at both ends, separated by a predicted rod-like domain, suggesting that it may act as an intermolecular linker. Ubiquitously expressed and belongs to a six-member gene family in Arabidopsis; expressed in transgenic seedlings localized to microtubules within the cortical array, preprophase band, phragmoplast, and mitotic spindle.
Computational Description
SPIRAL1 (SPR1); FUNCTIONS IN: molecular_function unknown; INVOLVED IN: anisotropic cell growth, unidimensional cell growth; LOCATED IN: spindle microtubule, cortical microtubule, transverse to long axis, preprophase band, phragmoplast; EXPRESSED IN: 25 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: 14 growth stages; BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: SPIRAL1-like2 (TAIR:AT1G69230.2); Has 191 Blast hits to 165 proteins in 37 species: Archae - 0; Bacteria - 8; Metazoa - 3; Fungi - 6; Plants - 146; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 28 (source: NCBI BLink).
