ER2 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT6G169160 (symbol ER2, also known as PsEXLRR1) on garden pea chromosome 6LG2 encodes a transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase with ATP-binding activity, belonging to the RLP29 and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) protein families. The gene is associated with megasporogenesis, microsporogenesis, embryo sac development, anther wall tapetum development, stomatal complex morphogenesis, and regulation of cell growth. It is associated with defense response, response to other organisms, signal transduction, protein phosphorylation, heat acclimation, and activation of salinity response. Localization evidence links the product to the plasma membrane, extracellular region, and mitochondria. Studies of related genes in other species connect the LRR receptor kinase family to metabolite content traits.
