Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Acts as transcriptional corepressor of the C class floral homeotic gene AGAMOUS during the early stages of floral meristem development. Is part of the A class cadastral complex that define the boundaries between the A and C class homeotic genes expression and function. Interacts together with APETALA2 and SEUSS to repress AGAMOUS expression. Also plays a role in ovule and pollen development. Ref.3 Ref.4
Subcellular location	Nucleus.
Tissue specificity	Expressed in young flower primordia, later becomes localized to petals, stamens and carpels. Is also expressed in vegetative tissues.
Developmental stage	Expressed prominently during both female and male gametes development.
Miscellaneous	Mutations in the LEUNIG gene result in the ectopic expression of AGAMOUS, leading to the replacement of sepals by carpels and stamens and of petals by stamens.
Sequence similarities	Contains 1 LisH domain. Contains 7 WD repeats.
Sequence caution	The sequence CAB43692.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction. The sequence CAB79972.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction.
