Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os04g0670500 <=> OsCP1, Os CP1
Function
- OsCP1 is a cysteine protease gene that might play an important role in pollen development. The mutant showed a significant defect in pollen development.
Expression
- GUS assay with the T-DNA tagged line indicated that the OsCP1 promoter was highly active in the rice anther.
Evolution
- Sequence analysis revealed that the deduced amino acid sequence of OsCP1 was homologous to those of papain family cyteine proteases containing the highly conserved interspersed amino acid motif, ERFNIN.
