BAK1 — Solanum lycopersicum

Summary

SOLYC03G064010.4, designated SlZAR1 and also known as BAK1, encodes a transmembrane receptor serine/threonine kinase with coreceptor activity, located at the plasma membrane. This tomato gene on chromosome 3 is associated with protein kinase A activation, trans-autophosphorylation, receptor-mediated endocytosis, and responses to AOS and ER stress. It has been linked to leaf necrosis, self-incompatibility, and salt tolerance. Associations also include sexual reproduction, organ growth, floral meristem size regulation, floral organ development, actin polymerization, and metabolic burst. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to plant height and stem elongation.
