The rice Os08g0163400 was reported as OsSIG1 in 2007 [1] by researchers from Japan.
Contents
Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os08g0163400 <=> OsSIG1,SIG1
Function
- Sigma factors encoded by the nucleus of plants confer promoter specificity on the bacterial-type RNA polymerase in chloroplasts.
- OsSIG1 plays an important role in the maintenance of photosynthetic activity in mature chloroplasts of rice by regulating expression of chloroplast genes for components of photosystem I. [1]
Phenotypic analysis
- The OsSIG1 )/) plants were found to be fertile but they manifested an approximately one-third reduction in the chlorophyll content of mature leaves.
- Quantitative RT-PCR and northern blot analyses of chloroplast gene expression revealed that the abundance of transcripts derived from the psaA operon was markedly reduced in OsSIG1 )/) plants compared with that in wild-type homozygotes.
- This effect was accompanied by a reduction in the abundance of the core protein complex (PsaA–PsaB) of photosystem I. Analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence also revealed a substantial reduction in the rate of electron transfer from photosystem II to photosystem I in the OsSIG1 mutants.
Expression
- The transcripts of OsSIG1 accumulate relatively late during leaf development.[2]
