RLK1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_002G046500, designated PvRLK1, encodes a protein with domains including G-type lectin kinases/EP1-like, S_locus_glycoprot_dom, bulb-type lectin domain, and a Ser/Thr kinase catalytic domain. The product exhibits protein serine kinase activity, calmodulin binding, sugar binding, and ATP binding. PvRLK1 is associated with pollen recognition, rejection of self pollen, immune response, defense response, and signal transduction. It localizes to the membrane and extracellular regions. Related genes in other species link the family to drought tolerance. The gene is also associated with identical protein binding and regulation of molecular function.
