Encodes a multitransmembrane hydrophobic protein that functions as transporter of UDP-galactose and UDP-glucose into the Golgi. Localized in the ER. Involved in the unfolded protein response, a mechanism that controls proper protein folding in the ER.
Computational Description
UDP-galactose transporter 1 (UTR1); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: UAA transporter (InterPro:IPR013657); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: UDP-galactose transporter 3 (TAIR:AT1G14360.1); Has 1052 Blast hits to 1046 proteins in 233 species: Archae - 0; Bacteria - 0; Metazoa - 503; Fungi - 150; Plants - 232; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 167 (source: NCBI BLink).
Encodes a putative transcription factor (MYB88), involved in stomata development, double loss of MYB88 and FLP (MYB124) activity results in a failure of guard mother cells (GMCs) to adopt the guard cell fate, thus they continue to divide resulting in abnormal stomata consisting of clusters of numerous guard cell-like cells. This phenotype is enhanced in double mutants over the single mutant flp phenotype.
