LOG1 — Oryza sativa Indica Group

Summary

BGIOSGA033138 (symbol LOG1, also known as OiLOG1) encodes a cytokinin riboside 5′-monophosphate phosphoribohydrolase, a member of the LOG protein family. It has hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing N-glycosyl compounds. The gene is associated with cytokinin anabolism, regulation of meristem development, developmental process, downregulation of defense response, protein transport, and NO storage. It localizes to the mitochondrial inner membrane, cytosol, and nucleus. LOG1 is also associated with awn length. Related genes in other species, such as LOGL1, LOGL7, LOGL9, and LOGL10, are linked by sequence similarity, though these associations are not yet established for this specific indica rice gene.
