Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g41010
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0593200
• Gene Symbol: OsFLZ2
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Both OsFLZ2 and OsMADS51 are highly expressed in rice leaves before floral transition under natural SD conditions, and their proteins are colocalized in the nucleus.
• OsFLZ2 delays flowering by repressing the expression of key floral integrator genes.
• Co-expression of OsFLZ2 can destabilize OsMADS51 and weaken its transcriptional activation of the downstream target gene Early heading date 1 (Ehd1).
• OsFLZ2 interacts with OsMADS51 to fine-tune rice flowering time.
• Here, we report that OsFLZ2 is a negative regulator of rice flowering time.
• Taken together, these results indicate that OsFLZ2 can interfere with the function of OsMADS51 to fine-tune rice flowering time.
• Biochemical assays showed OsFLZ2 physically interacts with OsMADS51, a flowering activator under short-day (SD) conditions.
