RGA3 — Triticum aestivum

Summary

TRAESCS3D02G515500, also known as TaYR36 or RGA3, encodes a protein with NB-ARC, Apaf_helical, WHD_DRP, and LRR domains, and is annotated for ADP, ATP, and metal binding. This bread wheat gene on chromosome 3D is associated with defense responses, including antiviral response, hypersensitive response-programmed cell death, and jasmonic acid signaling, as well as cell death, signal transduction, transport, and lipid metabolism. It is linked to stripe rust and grain protein content, and its product localizes to the membrane, plasmalemma, and cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species connect this family to plant immune responses.
