• Information
  • Symbol: Fd
  • MSU: LOC_Os05g37140
  • RAPdb: Os05g0443500
• Publication
  • Cloning and expression of a ferredoxin gene in rice roots in response to nitrate and ammonium, 1998, Plant Science.
• Genbank accession number
  • D30794
• Key message
  • The root Fd cDNA clone (pFDRR) was 603 bp long which contained 261-bp 5’ region encoding the C-terminal 72 amino acid residues and 342-bp 3’ noncoding region
  • The root Fd gene contained 1091-bp 5’ upstream, 444-bp coding and 294-bp 3’ noncoding regions
  • Homology between the rice root and leaf Fds showed 60%, while the former protein shared much higher identity with other nonphotosynthetic Fds (66~88%)
  • Expression of the root Fd gene was induced in response to nitrate and ammonium
  • Southern blot analysis using pFDRR and the rice leaf Fd cDNA (pFDRL) as a DNA probe identified their corresponding genomic Fd DNA
• Connection
  • Fd, OsFD1, Primary Leaf-type Ferredoxin1 Participates in Photosynthetic Electron Transport and Carbon Assimilation in Rice , Together, these results suggest that OsFd1 is the primary Fd in photosynthetic electron transport and carbon assimilation in rice
  • Fd, Fd1, Primary Leaf-type Ferredoxin1 Participates in Photosynthetic Electron Transport and Carbon Assimilation in Rice., Sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis of seven rice Fd proteins, and RT-qPCR analysis showed that rice Fd1 is a primary leaf-type Fd
