Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 100:8571-8576(2003). CC -!- FUNCTION: Considered as a meristem identity factor required for CC normal growth of the young floral meristem. Acts together with CC LEAFY to positively regulate the B class floral homeotic genes CC APETALA3 and PISTILLATA. In this way, operates as a region- CC specific regulator for petal and stamen development. CC Alternatively, may play a role as a negative regulator of the C CC class floral homeotic genes. Interacts together with the SKP1-like CC protein ASK1 to form a ubiquitin E3 ligase complex and could CC indirectly promote the ubiquitination and degradation of specific CC proteins controlling the floral primordia development like CC repressors of B class floral homeotic genes. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Part of a putative SCF (SKP1/Cullin/F-box) ubiquitin CC ligase complex. Interacts with SKP1. CC -!- INTERACTION: CC O49484:AT4g34210; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-590758, EBI-401185; CC Q00958:LFY; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-590758, EBI-1644366; CC Q39255:SKP1A; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-590758, EBI-532357; CC Q9FHW7:SKP1B; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-590758, EBI-604076; CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Probable). CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Detected early throughout the shoot apical CC meristem, but not in the emerging leaf primordia. Restricted later CC to the junction between sepal and petal primordia. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Mutations in the UFO gene result in the formation CC of unusual floral organs. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 F-box domain.
