Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: GmHZ1
• Gene Name: HDZip I protein
• Genome:
• Species: Glycine max

Functional Descriptions:

• GmHZ1 was characterized by the presence of a homeodomain (HD) with a closely linked leucine zipper motif (Zip).
• GmHZ1 can bind two 9-bp pseudopalindromic elements (CAAT(A/T)ATTG and CAAT(C/G)ATTG) with different affinity. Using GUS as a reporter gene, GmHZ1 was proved to be a transcriptional activator and enhanced GUS expression by binding with the two elements in plant cells.
• The expression of the GmHZ1 was different between resistant and susceptible cultivars when inoculated with soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and may be related to SMV resistance.
• These results indicate that the GmHZ1 may have a transcriptional activator function in plant response to SMV infection.
