Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os03g0717700 <=> OsHk4,HK4',Ohk4,HISTIDINE KINASE 4
Function
- OsHk4 and OsHk6 mediated the canonical two-component signaling cascade of Arabidopsis to induce phosphorylation of ARR2.
- The action mechanism of OsHks is evolutionarily diverged from bacterial histidine kinases.
- OsHks are homomeric cytokinin receptors with distinctive cytokinin preferences in rice.
Expression
- OsHk4 and OsHk6 were highly expressed in spike- lets, suggesting that tZ and iP might play key roles in grain development.
