Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g32830
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0511600
• Gene Symbol: OsPLGG1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Subcellular localization of OsPLGG1-GFP fusion protein, along with its predicted N-terminal transmembrane domain, confirmed that OsPLGG1 is a chloroplast transmembrane protein.
• OsPLGG1 mutant lines, OsPLGG1-1, OsPLGG1-2, and OsPLGG1-3, showed a growth retardation phenotype, such as pale green leaf, reduced tiller number, and reduced seed grain weight as well as reduced photosynthetic carbon reduction rate due to low activities of photosystem I and II.
• The plant growth retardation in OsPLGG1 mutants was rescued under high CO2 condition.
• These results suggest that OsPLGG1 is the functional plastidic glycolate/glycerate transporter, which is necessary for photorespiration and growth in rice.
