PR1 — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD5BV1G216960, also known as TtPR1, encodes a SCP domain-containing protein belonging to the CAP superfamily, which includes the CRISP-related family. In durum wheat on chromosome 5B, this gene is associated with defense response to other organism, defense response, mycotoxin anabolism, ochratoxin A anabolism, conidia formation, and morphogenesis. The product is localized to the extracellular region and vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species link this family to pathogenesis-related PR-1 proteins, though such roles are not yet established for this specific durum wheat gene.
