GLYMA_13G252300V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_13G252300v4 on soybean chromosome 13 encodes a protein containing a CAP domain and a CRISP-related region, placing it in the CAP superfamily. The gene is associated with a wide range of biological processes, including defence response to fungi and other organisms, programmed cell death, cell cycle control, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, seedling development, ethylene and glycoside anabolism, membrane fusion, secretion, and virus-induced PTGS. It is also linked to hatching and killing of cells of other organisms. The encoded protein is localised to the extracellular region and the vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species, such as pathogenesis-related PR-1 proteins, connect this gene family to defence responses, though this has not been established in soybean.
