Some HD-Zip genes are regulated by ethylene and methyl-jasmonic acid, signaling responses to biotic threats like insect herbivores. Functional Classification
Primarily involved in epidermal cell differentiation and lipid metabolism. hormon.zip
Members of the HD-Zip II and III families are strictly linked to auxin machinery, helping adjust plant architecture (like leaf and root development). Some HD-Zip genes are regulated by ethylene and
These proteins originated in green algae and expanded through multiple duplication events to help plants adapt to terrestrial life. Links to Hormone Networks These proteins originated in green algae and expanded
These proteins act as specific transcription factors that coordinate plant growth, development, and environmental adaptation by linking directly to hormone signaling pathways.
While "hormon.zip" likely refers to the plant-specific HD-Zip proteins, the term generally describes chemical messengers that travel through the bloodstream to regulate vital processes in all living organisms. In humans, these include:
