cytochrome P450, family 711, subfamily A, polypeptide 1;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary:
Encodes a protein with similarity to thromboxane-A synthase, member of the CYP711A cytochrome P450 family. MAX1 is a specific repressor of vegetative axillary buds generated by the axillary meristem. Expressed in vascular traces in the rosette stem and axillary buds throughout plant development. Mutants have increased axillary branches. Along with MAX3,4 thought to mediate control of shoot branching via synthesis of a signal molecule which is transported over long distance mediated by MAX2. cDNA supports the existence of the longer transcript predicted for this locus, no cDNA isolated for shorter transcript. MAX1 downregulates 11 genes involved in flavonoid pathway (CHS, CHI, F3H, F3'H, FLS, DFR, ANS, UFGT, RT, AAC and GST).
