CF-9 — Solanum lycopersicum

Summary

SOLYC01G005780.1, also known as CF-9, encodes a receptor-like protein belonging to the RLP23 family, characterised by leucine-rich repeat domains and annotated with signalling receptor activity, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, and steroid, SNARE, and ATP binding. In tomato, this gene is associated with innate immune response activating cell surface receptor signalling, immune memory response, hydrogen peroxide metabolic process, metabolic burst, ethylene anabolism, and deubiquitination. It is linked to membrane and endosome localisation, as well as traits including leaf chlorosis and stomatal opening. Studies of related genes in other species connect this family to pathogen recognition and defence signalling.
