ER2 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT4G134680 (symbol ER2) on chromosome 4LG4 encodes a receptor-like protein with leucine-rich repeat domains and transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase activity, functioning as a pattern recognition receptor with coreceptor activity and protein serine kinase activity. The gene is associated with immune response-regulating cell surface receptor signaling pathways, defense response to parasitic plants, activation of innate immune response, and regulation of meristem development. It is also linked to brassinosteroid-mediated signaling, heat acclimation, hypersensitive response-programmed cell death, flower development, somatic embryogenesis, and regulation of cell growth and defense responses to fungi. The encoded protein localizes to the plasma membrane. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to receptor kinase signaling in development and immunity.
