Structural highlights
Function
FT_ARATH Probable component of the mobile flower-promoting signal (floral stimulus or florigen). Promotes the transition from vegetative growth to flowering. Required for 'SEPALLATA3' (SEP3) and 'FRUITFULL' (FUL) accumulation in mature rosette leaves. Seems to acts in parallel with 'LEAFY' to induce flowering by regulating 'APETALA1'. May play a role in both the autonomous and the long-day flowering pathways.[1] [2] [3]
