PR10 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_17G030400V4, designated GmPR10, encodes a PR10 protein on soybean chromosome 17. The product belongs to the Bet_v_I/MLP and START-like domain superfamilies and exhibits multiple molecular functions including melatonin, cytokinin, and abscisic acid binding, RNA nuclease activity, protein phosphatase inhibitor activity, hydrolase activity, signaling receptor activity, and calcium ion binding. It is associated with diverse biological processes such as seed development, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, defense response, ABA signaling, downregulation of defense response, sensitization, hyphal growth, translation initiation, and syngamy. The protein localises to the cytosol, cytoplasm, and nucleus. GmPR10 is associated with drought tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species link the PR10 family to ribonuclease activity (EC 3.1.27.-).
