Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) translationally controlled tumor protein interacts with CsRab11A and promotes activation of target of rapamycin in response to Podosphaera xanthii.
  • Transient transformation assays indicate that CsRab11A is involved in the defense against P. xanthii and promotes the activation of TOR signaling through CsTCTP.
  • CsRab11A was found to interact with the N-terminal domain of TOR, facilitating the activation of TOR signaling, an effect that is enhanced by the overexpression of CsTCTP.
  • These results suggest a sophisticated adaptive response mechanism in which upstream regulators, CsTCTP and CsRab11A, coordinate to modulate TOR function in response to P. xanthii, highlighting a novel aspect of plant–pathogen interactions.
  • The extensive expression of CsRab11A in cucumber cells also served as additional evidence of the successful transient transformation assay in cucumber cotyledons.
