    Also known as
    F19B11.13; F19B11_13; SKU6; SPIRAL1
    Summary
    The SPR1 gene encodes a plant-specific 12-kD protein which has a repeated motif at both ends, separated by a predicted rod-like domain, suggesting that it may act as an intermolecular linker. Ubiquitously expressed and belongs to a six-member gene family in Arabidopsis; expressed in transgenic seedlings localized to microtubules within the cortical array, preprophase band, phragmoplast, and mitotic spindle.
