Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g08330
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0178600
• Gene Symbol: OsCDR1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• The Oryza sativa constitutive disease resistance 1 (OsCDR1) gene product is an aspartic proteinase that has been implicated in disease resistance signaling.
• Heterologous expression and characterization of recombinant OsCDR1, a rice aspartic proteinase involved in disease resistance.
• Expression of OsCDR1 was activated upon treatments with benzothiadiazole and salicylic acid, which are signal molecules in plant disease resistance responses.
• Overexpression of rice (Oryza sativa L.) OsCDR1 leads to constitutive activation of defense responses in rice and Arabidopsis.
• Infiltration of the OsCDR1 fusion protein into leaves of Arabidopsis plants induced PR2 transcripts in both the infiltrated leaf (primary) and in non-treated secondary leaves while the inactive recombinant protein failed to induce either local or systemic PR2.
• These findings demonstrate that OsCDR1 is capable of inducing systemic defense responses in plants.
