Encodes the Arabidopsis homolog of the transcriptional regulator MED12, is dynamically expressed during embryogenesis and regulates both developmental timing and the radial pattern formation. Involved in flowering time. The mutant enhances the expression of the flowering time (FT) gene. A knockout mutant of this gene showed late-flowering phenotype.
