• Information
  • Symbol: Gns1
  • MSU: LOC_Os02g53200
  • RAPdb: Os02g0771700
• Publication
  • New perspectives on the endo-beta-glucanases of glycosyl hydrolase Family 17, 2000, Int J Biol Macromol.
  • Characterization of transgenic rice plants over-expressing the stress-inducible beta-glucanase gene Gns1, 2003, Plant Mol Biol.
• Genbank accession number
  • U72255
• Key message
  • To assess the function of the Gns1 gene in disease resistance, we characterized transgenic rice plants constitutively expressing the Gns1 gene
  • Although transgenic plants showed stunted growth and impaired root formation, fertility, germination, and coleoptile elongation appeared unaffected compared to non-transgenic control plants, indicating that Gns1 does not play a crucial role in rice germination and coleoptile elongation
  • RNA and protein gel blot analyses demonstrated that blast disease or dark treatment induced the expression of the Gns1 gene
