MLO — Cucumis sativus

Summary

CSA_2G336140, designated MLO (CsMLO13), encodes a calmodulin-binding protein localised to the membrane. In cucumber, this gene is associated with cell wall thickening, immune and defense responses, ABA signaling, signal transduction, and protein synthesis. Related genes in other species link the family to powdery mildew susceptibility. The gene’s membrane localisation and calmodulin-binding activity are annotated.
