EC1.2 Egg cell-secreted-like protein (DUF1278) [Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: EC1.2
Official Full Name: Egg cell-secreted-like protein (DUF1278)
Primary source: TAIR:AT2G21740
Locus tag: AT2G21740
See related: Araport:AT2G21740
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype: Columbia)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis
Also known as: EGG CELL 1.2; F7D8.6; F7D8_6
Summary: Encodes a small cysteine-rich protein that is secreted by the egg cell during gamete interactions. The regulated secretion of EC1 by the egg cell upon sperm-egg interaction is proposed to ensure the appropriate localization of the cell-fusion machinery in distinct sperm membrane domains to accomplish gamete fusion.
