PR1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_006G196900, designated PvPR1, encodes a protein containing a CAP domain, a CRISP-related region, and a CAP_sf fold. The gene is associated with cytokine activity and protein binding, and is linked to salicylic acid breakdown, activation of immune response, priming of cellular response to stress, defense responses to bacteria, herbivores, and other organisms, as well as responses to ethylene, jasmonic acid, wounding, thiamin, and thirst. It has been connected to root development, sexual reproduction, metabolic burst, nitric oxide storage, and killing of cells of other organisms. PvPR1 is localized to the extracellular space, plant-type cell wall, vacuole, and secretory vesicles. The gene is associated with numerous defense-related phenotypes including systemic acquired resistance, resistance to pathogens such as Rhizoctonia solani and Pseudomonas syringae, and responses to cadmium, salt, and UV-C stress.
