TEF1 — Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15

Summary

MGG_03641 (TEF1, MoTEF1) on chromosome 4 of Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15 encodes a translation elongation factor 1A (eEF1A) family protein with GTPase activity, GTP binding, and translation elongation factor activity. The gene is associated with translation elongation, translation, cell wall biogenesis, mating behavior, sexual reproduction, host invasion, and homeostasis, and its product localizes to the cytoplasm. Associations include spore wall formation, pheromone sensitivity, shmoo formation, pseudohyphal growth, cell cycle progression, nuclear export, endocytosis, autophagy, pexophagy, prion inheritance, meiosis, necrotic cell death, carbon source utilization, nutrient uptake, and innate thermotolerance. Related genes in other species link the family to days to silk and protein content.
