Annotated Information
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.
