Background:

ATEPFL9 is a cysteine-rich peptide, a secretory factor that is produced in the mesophyll cells and acts on the epidermis to increase stomatal formation. Its mature form is a 45-aa peptide with three intramolecular disulfide bonds. It is proposed that ATEPFL9 increases stomatal number by competing with two negative regulators of stomatal density, EPF1 and EPF2.
