Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: PtaRHE1
  • Gene Name: RING-H2 subgroup RHE protein1
  • Genome:
  • Species: Populus alba x Populus tremula

Functional Descriptions:

  • Ectopic expression of PtaRHE1, encoding a poplar RING-H2 protein with E3 ligase activity, alters plant development and induces defence-related responses.
  • In the present report, experiments were performed to unravel the role of the poplar gene PtaRHE1, coding for a RING-H2 protein.
  • The overexpression of PtaRHE1 in tobacco resulted in a pleiotropic phenotype characterized by a curling of the leaves, the formation of necrotic lesions on leaf blades, growth retardation, and a delay in floral transition.
  • These results suggest that the E3 ligase PtaRHE1 plays a role in the ubiquitination-mediated regulation of defence response, possibly by acting upstream of WIPK and/or in the activation of WRKY factors.
