PR1 — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD5BV1G217150, also known as TtPR1, encodes a SCP domain-containing protein belonging to the CAP superfamily, with a V5 allergen-like domain and a CRISP-related motif. In durum wheat, this gene is associated with defense responses to other organisms, as well as with ochratoxin A anabolism, 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, such as pathogenesis-related protein PR-1A1 and PRB1-2, link the family to broader defense signaling.
