The rice Os06g0245600 was reported as RPL1 in 2011 by researchers from China.

Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

• Os06g0245600 <=> OsRPL1,RPL1

Function

• Analysis of the putative rice brassinosteroid receptor OsBRI1, a key hormone signaling gene, indicated that RPL1 may be involved in the regulation of epigenomic modification of the gene.
• RPL1 regulated phenotypic plasticity likely through its involvement in epigenetic processes affecting responses of the plant to phytohormones.

Phenotypic analysis

• The rice (Oryza sativa L.) mutant, rice plasticity 1 (rpl1), that displayed increased environment-dependent phenotypic variations.
• The rpl1 mutation led to an increase in DNA methylation on repetitive sequences and a decrease in overall histone acetylation. In addition, the mutation affected responses of the rice plant to phytohormones such as brassinosteroid, gibberellin, and cytokinin.

Expression

• RPL1 was expressed in all tissues examined.

Evolution

• The protein was localized in the nucleus and its distribution in the nucleus overlapped with heterochromatin.
