CLAVATA3 mediated simultaneous control of transcriptional and post-translational processes provides robustness to the WUSCHEL gradient
Abstract
WUSCHEL is a critical regulator of stem cell homeostasis at shoot apical meristems. Here the authors show that CLV3 regulates WUSCHEL by not only repressing WUSCHEL transcription but also by controlling nuclear export of WUSCHEL and therefore its diffusion between adjacent cells.
