ER1 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT1G211600 (ER1) on chromosome 1LG6 encodes a protein with malectin and leucine-rich repeat domains, possessing transmembrane receptor serine/threonine kinase activity, coreceptor activity, and protein serine kinase activity. It is associated with brassinosteroid-mediated signalling, activation of defence response to bacteria, sporulation, megasporogenesis, microsporogenesis, anther wall tapetum development, heat acclimation, and regulation of cell growth. The protein localises to the plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum membrane, and nucleus. Related genes in other species link the family to brassinosteroid signalling and immune responses, and to bacterial disease resistance.
