Basic information   
Locus name AT4G34890
AliasAtXDH1
OrganismArabidopsis thaliana
Taxonomic identifier[NCBI]
Function categoryNucleic acid degradation:purine catabolism
Effect for Senescencedelay
Gene DescriptionEncodes a xanthine dehydrogenase, involved in purine catabolism. Ubiquitously expressed, but the transcript level is altered during aging, senescence, salt and cold stress, ABA treatment, and dark treatment. RNAi lines that suppress both XDH1 and XDH2 produce small plants with reduced fertility and accelerated leaf senescence.
EvidenceGenetic evidence:Mutant [Ref 1]; Genomic evidence:microarray data [Ref 2]

Mutant Image      
Older leaves of the Atxdh1 mutant exhibited early senescence, lower soluble protein and lower organic-N levels as compared to wild-type (WT) older leaves when grown with 1 mM nitrate but were comparable to WT under 5 mM nitrate.
