MYCGR3G70312 — Zymoseptoria tritici

Summary

MYCGR3G70312 (PRB1) on Zymoseptoria tritici chromosome 3 encodes a serine-type endopeptidase with IgE binding activity, belonging to the peptidase S8 subtilisin-like family. The gene is associated with vacuolar localization and protein catabolic processes in the vacuole, as well as asexual sporulation, spore formation, and meiosis. It is linked to the MAPK cascade, pexophagy, nitrogen catabolite repression, the glucose effect, vacuolar acidification, pH reduction, protein secretion, glycosylation, proteolysis, RNA breakdown, and the DNA damage response. The encoded protein localizes to the extracellular space and vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to subtilisin-like serine protease activity (EC 3.4.21.63) and oxidative stress.
