RLK1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_002G000200 (RLK1, PvRLK1) on French bean chromosome 2 encodes a protein with calmodulin binding, sugar binding, protein serine kinase activity, protein kinase activity, ATP binding, and identical protein binding. It belongs to the G-type lectin kinase/EP1-like and SRK-like kinase families. This gene is associated with pollen recognition, rejection of self pollen, immune response, response to other organism, signal transduction, and defense response, and is localized to the extracellular region and membrane. It is also linked to regulation of molecular function. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to drought tolerance.
