RIN4 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_010G021200, designated PvRIN4, encodes a protein belonging to the RIN4/NOI4 family and containing a Type III avirulence cleavage domain. The product is associated with clathrin light chain binding, proton-transporting ATPase activity, and multiple other molecular functions including kinase and isomerase activities. PvRIN4 is linked to detection of bacteria, negative regulation of the hypersensitive response, PTI signalling, defense response by callose deposition, and regulation of stomatal movement. It is associated with traits including bacterial disease response, bacterial blight disease resistance, water use efficiency, transpiration rate, root hair length, leaf rolling response, cadmium and arsenic concentration, phosphorus uptake, and shoot axis branching. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to innate immune response, flagellin perception, antibacterial resistance, and plasma membrane H+-ATPase activity.
