Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: Sotub03g022560
  • Gene Symbol: StMKK5
  • Gene Name:
  • Genome:
  • Species: Solanum tuberosum

Functional Descriptions:

  • The potato StMKK5-StSIPK module enhances resistance to Phytophthora pathogens through activating the salicylic acid and ethylene signalling pathways.
  • Silencing of the highly conserved eukaryotic protein SGT1 delayed the StMKK5-induced cell death, whereas silencing of the MAPK-encoding gene NbSIPK completely abolished the cell death response.
  • The StMKK5-StSIPK module positively regulates resistance to Phytophthora pathogens and triggers SA- and Eth-related cell death in N. benthamiana.
  • Thus, our results define a potato StMKK5-SIPK module that positively regulates immunity to P. infestans via activation of both the SA and Eth signalling pathways.
