CC   -!- FUNCTION: Transcription activator, when associated with MYB75/PAP1,
CC       MYB90/PAP2 or TT2. Involved in epidermal cell fate specification.
CC       Negatively regulates stomata formation, but, in association with TTG1
CC       and MYB0/GL1, promotes trichome formation, branching and
CC       endoreplication. Also regulates trichome cell wall maturation. Together
CC       with MYB66/WER, promotes the formation of non-hair cells in root
CC       epidermis cells in the N position. Whereas together with CPC, promotes
CC       the formation of hair cells in root epidermis cells in the H position
CC       by inhibiting non-hair cell formation. Seems also to play a role in the
CC       activation of anthocyanin biosynthesis, probably together with
CC       MYB75/PAP1. Activates the transcription of GL2.

CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:15590742}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH
CC       protein (By similarity). Homodimer and heterodimer with BHLH2.
CC       Interacts directly with TTG1 and MYB0/GL1 to form a complex. Its
CC       interaction with TRY prevents MYB0/GL1 binding. Interacts with
CC       MYB75/PAP1, MYB90/PAP2, TT2, CPC, MYB23 and MYB66/WER. Interacts with
CC       MYB82 (PubMed:24803498). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11063707,

CC       from developing hair cells (trichoblasts) to developing non-hair cells
CC       (atrichoblasts). Also detected in trichome nucleus.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Mostly expressed in roots and flowers. Also present
CC       in stems and leaves, and, to a lower extent, in hypocotyls. Expressed
CC       in epidermal root hair cells (trichoblasts) and moves to root hairless
CC       cells (atrichoblasts) by a cell-to-cell movement through plasmodesmata
CC       (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12679534,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:14627722, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15590742}.
CC   -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Localized in trichome developing region of leaves,
CC       prior to trichome initiation. Levels increase in initiating and young
CC       trichome cells, but dropped in the pavement cells between trichomes.
CC       Disappears in mature trichomes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12917293}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By nitrogen deficiency and UV light. Negatively regulated by
CC       MYB66/WER, GL3 and BHLH2 in the developing non-hair cells, and
CC       positively regulated by CPC and TRY in the developing hair cells.
CC       {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12679534, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15590742,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:17053893}.
CC   -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Plants exhibit two-branched trichomes instead of
CC       three-branched trichomes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11063707}.
