NCBI Protein Information
kinase with tetratricopeptide repeat domain-containing protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a N-myrystolylated plasma membrane associated member of the RLCK II family of IRAK/Pelle-like kinases that regulates the MAPK pathway that promotes the elongation of the Arabidopsis zygote and the development of its basal daughter cell into the extra-embryonic suspensor. SSP transcripts are produced in mature pollen but are not translated until delivery to the zygote and the endosperm after fertilization, exerting a paternal effect on embryonic development. The primary role of its kinase domain may lie in protein binding rather than in catalysis as key residues of the active site are absent.

UniProt Comments
Probable inactive protein kinase that activates the YODA MAP kinase cascade, which regulates the asymmetric first division and embryo polarity, by promoting the elongation of the zygote and the development of its basal daughter cell into the extra-embryonic suspensor. Acts as an adapter at the plasma membrane, possibly by recruiting and binding an activator.
