PR2 — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BVRB_4G073190 (symbol PR2, also known as Glu2) encodes a glucan endo-1,3-beta-D-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.39) with lichenase activity, belonging to the glycosyl hydrolase family 17. The encoded protein is localised to the vacuole and extracellular space. In sugar beet, this gene is associated with carbohydrate metabolism and defence response. It has been connected to photosynthetic rate. Studies of related genes in tomato link the family to disease resistance and virus resistance.
