Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • StMLP1, as a Kunitz trypsin inhibitor, enhances potato resistance and specifically expresses in vascular bundles during Ralstonia solanacearum infection.
  • StMLP1 as an inducible promoter that can be triggered by R. solanacearum and as a tissue-specific promoter with specificity for vascular bundle expression.
  • Our findings demonstrate that StMLP1 exhibits trypsin inhibitor activity, and that its signal peptide is essential for proper localization and function. Overexpression of StMLP1 in potato can enhance the resistance to R. solanacearum.
  • The RNA-seq results of the overexpression-StMLP1 lines indicated that StMLP1 was involved in potato immunity. All these findings in our study reveal that StMLP1 functions as a positive regulator that is induced and specifically expressed in vascular bundles in response to R. solanacearum infection.
