PR1 — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C05F1360 (PR1) on asparagus chromosome 5 encodes a Bet_v_I/MLP domain-containing protein with abscisic acid binding, protein phosphatase inhibitor, and signaling receptor activities. The gene is associated with ABA signaling, defense response, and response to wounding, and its product localizes to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Studies of related genes in other species link this protein family to allergenicity and stress signaling.
