LOG1 — Oryza sativa Indica Group

Summary

BGIOSGA020284 (LOG1) on chromosome 5 of Indica rice encodes a protein of the LOG family with cytokinin riboside 5'-monophosphate phosphoribohydrolase activity, as well as NADH:nitrate reductase activity, Mo ion binding, FAD binding, and mRNA binding. The gene is associated with cytokinin anabolism, nitric oxide anabolism, Moco biosynthesis, regulation of meristem development, auxin signaling, and response to light stimulus and symbiotic fungi. It has been linked to domestication, awn development, seed development, grain filling, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses including drought and nitrogen availability. Associations also include awn length, nitrate sensitivity and uptake, root meristem development, flowering time, disease tolerance, grain yield, panicle and tiller traits, and stomatal closure. The protein localizes to the vacuole, mitochondria, cytosol, plasmalemma, cytoplasm, and nucleus.
