• Information
  • Symbol: OsHFP
  • MSU: LOC_Os04g13540
  • RAPdb: Os04g0213100
• Publication
  • A structurally novel hemopexin fold protein of rice plays role in chlorophyll degradation, 2012, Biochem Biophys Res Commun.
• Genbank accession number
  • JX233809
• Key message
  • The possible role of OsHFP in regulating programmed cell death in anther green tissues of rice is proposed
  • Heterologous expression of OsHFP in green leaf tissues resulted in chlorophyll degradation; however, stable expression of OsHFP was observed in transgenic hairy roots, a non-green tissue
  • The expression of the single copy OsHFP gene was detected in rice flower buds
