PR1 — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD5BV1G217000, also known as TtPR1, encodes a SCP domain-containing protein with a CAP domain. In durum wheat, this gene is associated with defense responses to other organisms and general defense responses, as well as with ochratoxin A and mycotoxin anabolism, conidia formation, and morphogenesis. The encoded protein is localized to the extracellular region and the vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species link the PR-1 family to defense signaling and stress responses, though these associations are not yet established for this specific durum wheat gene.
