RLK — Lactuca sativa
Summary
LsRLK, encoded by the garden lettuce gene LSAT_V11C500270140 on chromosome 5, is a transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase with histone H2AS1 kinase activity, belonging to the PRK1-6/SRF4-like and LRR_N_plant-typ domain families. It is associated with the upregulation of seed germination, cellular response to drought, activation of salinity response, and upregulation of abscisic acid-mediated signaling. The gene is also linked to floral organ development, regulation of meristem organization, stomatal complex morphogenesis, and gametophyte development. Localized to the plasma membrane, LsRLK is associated with drought tolerance and ABA response. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to traits including root volume, shoot dry weight, plant height, fruit size, leaf number, and abscisic acid sensitivity, as well as immunity and low nitrogen stress tolerance.
