Gene Symbol

  • Os01g0777300 <=> OsExo1,Exo1

Function

  • OsEXO1 is able to substitute for ScEXO1 and ScRAD27 functions.
  • Yeast two-hybrid analysis shows that OsEXO1 interacted with rice DNA polymerase k (OsPol k), the 70 kDa subunit b of rice replication protein A (OsRPA70b), and the 32 kDa subunit 1 of rice replication protein A (OsRPA32-1).
  • OsEXO1 plays an important role in both cell proliferation and UV-damaged nuclear DNA repair pathway under dark conditions.

Expression

  • The transcript of OsEXO1 is highly expressed in meristematic tissues and panicles.
  • Inhibition of cell proliferation by removal of sucrose from the medium or by the addition of cell cycle inhibitors decreased OsEXO1 expression.

Subcellular localization

  • Subcellular localization analysis showed that OsEXO1-sGFP fusion protein transiently overexpressed in the onion epidermal cells localized to the nucleus.
