ADH — Oryza sativa Indica Group

Summary

BGIOSGA034309 (OiADH) on chromosome 11 of Indica rice encodes a protein with ADH-like_N and ADH-like_C domains, and has S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (NADH) activity, S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity, aldo-keto reductase (NAD) activity, redox activity, calcium ion binding, protein homodimerization activity, zinc binding, and protein binding. The gene is associated with activation of cellular response to hypoxic stress, response to estradiol, caffeine, flooding, hypoxia, hydrogen peroxide, and sucrose, methanal metabolism and catabolism, cellular respiration, MAPK cascade, heat acclimation, seed development, programmed cell death, osmotic response, salinity response, and response to thirst. It is linked to traits including respiration rate, herbicide sensitivity, low temperature stress response, photosynthetic rate, leaf senescence, disease tolerance, plant height, salt tolerance, and drought tolerance. The encoded protein localizes to plastid, mitochondria, cytosol, plasmalemma, cytoplasm, and nucleus. Related genes in other species link the family to hypoxic stress response, hypoxia response, dehydration stress response, alcohol metabolism, low oxygen tolerance, freezing tolerance, anaerobic response, salt stress resistance, chilling tolerance, drought resistance, cold resistance, cadmium tolerance, wound response, formaldehyde detoxification, root development, and iron toxicity tolerance.
