Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

• Os04g0556300 <=> OsGPX1,GPX1

Function

• Chloroplastic and mitochondrial GPX genes play a critical role in rice development
• Although the knockdown of OsGPX1 did not impair plant regeneration, the plants with silenced OsGPX1 (GPX1s plants) showed reduced shoot length and a reduced number of seeds compared to the non-transformed rice plants.
• OsGPX1 and OsGPX4 are essential for redox homeostasis which leads to normal growth and development in rice.

Subcellular localization

• OsGPX1 is located in mitochondria.
