NCBI Protein Information
AGAMOUS-like 12
NCBI Summary
Encodes a member of the MADS box family of transcription factors. Involved in root cell differentiation and flowering time. Loss of function mutations have abnormal cellular differentiation in the roots and are late flowering. AGL12 along with AGL14, and AGL17 is preferentially expressed in root tissues and represent the only characterized MADS box genes expressed in roots.

UniProt Comments
Probable transcription activator that regulates root development by controlling cell proliferation in root meristem. May mediate responses to auxin in the root. May act as promoter of the flowering transition through up-regulation of SOC, FT and LFY.
