Protein attributes

Sequence length	255 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	May cause loosening and extension of plant cell walls by disrupting non-covalent bonding between cellulose microfibrils and matrix glucans. No enzymatic activity has been found. May be required for rapid internodal elongation in deepwater rice during submergence By similarity.
Subcellular location	Secreted › cell wall By similarity. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein By similarity.
Tissue specificity	Expressed in the epidermis and vascular cylinder of the root tip, lateral root primordia, adventitious root primordia, shoot apex and leaf primordia. Ref.3 Ref.4
Developmental stage	Expressed in the apical region (growing zone) of the root hair. Ref.3
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the expansin family. Expansin A subfamily. Contains 1 expansin-like CBD domain. Contains 1 expansin-like EG45 domain.
