Os02g0491600

The rice Os02g0491600 was reported as OsGLP2-1 in 2016 by researchers from China.

Annotated Information

Function

• The germin-like protein OsGLP2-1 enhances resistance to fungal blast and bacterial blight in rice.
• OsGLP2-1 functions as a positive regulator to modulate disease resistance. Its good quantitative resistance to the two major diseases in rice makes it to be a promising target in rice breeding.

Expression

• Overexpression of OsGLP2-1 quantitatively enhanced resistance to leaf blast, panicle blast and bacterial blight.
• Compared with empty vector transformed (control) plants, the OsGLP2-1 overexpressing plants exhibited higher levels of H2O2 both before and after pathogen inoculation.
• Overexpression of OsGLP2-1 induced three well-characterized defense-related genes which are associated in JA-dependent pathway after pathogen infection.

Subcellular localization

• The temporal and spatial expression analysis revealed that OsGLP2-1is highly expressed in leaves and panicles and sub-localized in the cell wall.
