GS5 — Oryza sativa Japonica

Summary

OS05G0158500 (GS5) encodes a serine carboxypeptidase with hydroxymandelonitrile lyase and acyltransferase activities, belonging to the peptidase S10 family. In rice, GS5 is associated with grain width, grain size, and yield. The gene is also linked to abscisic acid response, proteolysis, secondary metabolism, and arbuscular mycorrhizae formation. Its product localizes to the vacuole, apoplast, and extracellular space. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to additional carboxypeptidase and hydroxynitrile lyase activities.
