Protein attributes

Sequence length	372 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Part of the phyA-mediated signaling transduction pathway leading to the regulation of gene expression and hypocotyls elongation in response to red and far-red light exposure.
Subunit structure	Interacts with SKP1A. May be part of a E3 ubiquitin ligase SCF(AFR) complex.
Induction	Rhythmic expression with highest levels at the end of the dark phase, just before the transition to light. Induction by far-red light requires phyA.
Domain	The kelch repeats form a beta-propeller structure involved in protein-protein interaction. The F-box is required for the interaction with SKP1A.
Sequence similarities	Contains 1 F-box domain. Contains 5 Kelch repeats.
