Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g54540
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0749200
• Gene Symbol: WLP1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• The transcription pattern of a number of genes involved in plastidial transcription/translation and in photosynthesis was altered in the WLP1 mutants.
• The WLP1 protein localized to the chloroplast.
• These results reveal that WLP1 is required for normal chloroplast development, especially under low temperature conditions.
• The rice nuclear gene WLP1 encoding a chloroplast ribosome L13 protein is needed for chloroplast development in rice grown under low temperature conditions.
• Here we describe a rice mutant named WLP1 (white leaf and panicles 1) selected from a population of tissue culture regenerants.
• WLP1 was mainly transcribed in green tissues and particularly abundantly in the early seedling leaves.
• In addition, the expression level of WLP1 was induced by the low temperature.
