• Information
  • Symbol: RIP1
  • MSU: LOC_Os12g03822
  • RAPdb: Os12g0132400
• Publication
  • Rice Immature Pollen 1 RIP1 is a regulator of late pollen development, 2006, Plant Cell Physiol.
  • Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of heading date in rice, 2020, New Phytol.
• Genbank accession number
  • AK111507
• Key message
  • We isolated a pollen-preferential gene, RICE IMMATURE POLLEN 1 (RIP1), from a T-DNA insertional population of japonica rice that was trapped by a promoterless beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene
  • Semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) analyses confirmed that the RIP1 transcript was abundant at the late stages of pollen development
  • Microscopic analysis demonstrated that development in the rip1 pollen was delayed, starting at the early vacuolated stage
  • These results indicate that RIP1 is necessary for pollen maturation and germination
  • Therefore, RIP1 is probably a nuclear protein that may form a functional complex with other proteins and carry out essential cellular and developmental roles during the late stage of pollen formation
  • Rice Immature Pollen 1 (RIP1) is a regulator of late pollen development
