| Locus name | LOC4333171 |
| Alias | OsXDH | | Organism | Rice (Oryza sativa) | | Taxonomic identifier | [NCBI] | | Function category | | | Effect for Senescence | delay | | Gene Description | Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), a molybdenum-containing hydroxylase, is a major enzyme regulating the metabolism of purines. Xanthine dehydrogenase can catalyze the formation of uric acid from xanthine and hypoxanthine, and then the formation of allantoin and allantoate through a series of metabolic reactions.It is involved in regulation of the normal growth and non-biological stress-induced ageing processes in plants. | | Evidence | Genetic evidence [Ref 1] | | References | 1: Han R, He X, Pan X, Shi Q, Wu Z.Enhancing xanthine dehydrogenase activity is an effective way to delay leaf senescence and increase rice yieldRice (N Y). 2020 Mar 11;13(1):16. doi: 10.1186/s12284-020-00375-7. |
