CRK26 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_007G050200, symbol CRK26 and also known as PvCRK29, encodes a transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase with coreceptor and signaling receptor activity, sugar and ATP binding, and protein homodimerization activity. It is associated with immune and defense responses, including defense against oomycetes and bacteria, innate immune signaling, and response to stress and light stimulus. The gene is linked to brassinosteroid and abscisic acid signaling, triterpenoid anabolism, inhibition of salinity response, and rejection of self pollen. Its product localizes to the plasma membrane, membrane, vacuole, and extracellular region. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to drought tolerance and photochemical quenching.
