RLK1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_010G031900, designated PvRLK1 on French bean chromosome 10, encodes a protein with G-type lectin kinase, bulb-type lectin, and serine/threonine kinase domains, and is annotated with calmodulin binding, sugar binding, protein serine kinase activity, protein kinase activity, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, identical protein binding, and ATP binding. The gene is associated with pollen recognition, rejection of self-pollen, immune response, defense response, response to other organisms, signal transduction, and regulation of molecular function, and its product localizes to the membrane and extracellular regions. Related genes in other species link the family to drought tolerance.
