GLYMA_13G251700V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_13G251700v4 on soybean chromosome 13 encodes a protein containing a CAP (cysteine-rich secretory protein, antigen 5, and pathogenesis-related 1) domain, placing it in the CAP superfamily. The gene is associated with a wide range of biological processes, including defence response to other organisms and fungi, programmed cell death, cell death, cell cycle control, seedling development, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, secretion, membrane fusion, virus-induced PTGS, and ethylene and glycoside anabolism. It is also linked to hatching and killing of cells of other organisms. The encoded protein is localised to the extracellular region and vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species link this gene family to plant defence responses.
