Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Glyma.04G244900
• Gene Symbol: GmBTB
• Gene Name: BTB/POZ domain-containing nuclear protein
• Genome: Wm82.a4.v1
• Species: Glycine max

Functional Descriptions:

• GmBTB/GmPOZ, a novel BTB/POZ domain-containing nuclear protein, positively regulates the response of soybean to Phytophthora sojae infection.
• Overexpression of GmBTB/GmPOZ in soybean resulted in enhanced resistance to P. sojae.
• The activities and expression levels of enzymatic superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) antioxidants were significantly higher in GmBTB/GmPOZ-overexpressing (GmBTB/GmPOZ-OE) transgenic soybean plants than in wild-type (WT) plants treated with sterile water or infected with P. sojae.
• These results suggest that GmBTB/GmPOZ plays a positive role in P. sojae resistance and the defence response in soybean via a process that might be dependent on SA.
• The BTB/POZ domain protein GmBTB/GmPOZ promotes the ubiquitination and degradation of the soybean AP2/ERF-like transcription factor GmAP2 to regulate the defense response to Phytophthora sojae.
