PR-1 — Brachypodium distachyon

Summary

BRADI_3G60260V3, also known as BdPR1#022 or PR-1, encodes a protein belonging to the CAP (cysteine-rich secretory proteins, antigen 5, and pathogenesis-related 1) superfamily, containing a V5-allergen-like domain and a CRISP-related domain. The gene is associated with defense responses to other organisms, cell death, and general defense responses, based on ontology annotations. The encoded protein is localized to the extracellular region and the vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species, linked by sequence similarity, connect the PR-1 family to traits such as total soluble sugar content, sugar content, and chlorophyll content.
