Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os03g06620
• RAPdb gene ID: Os03g0161800
• Gene Symbol: OsARD OsARD2
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• OsARD1 mRNA levels showed a rapid, early and transient increase upon submergence and after treatment with ethylene-releasing compounds.
• Northern blot and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that the OsARD expression is regulated by abiotic stresses and phytohormones.
• OsARD1 transcripts accumulated in the presence of cycloheximide, an inhibitor of protein synthesis, indicating that OsARD1 is a primary ethylene response gene.
• Promoter analysis suggests that immediate-early regulation of OsARD1 by ethylene may involve an EIN3-like transcription factor.
• OsARD1 is induced by low levels of ethylene.
• The immediate-early ethylene response gene OsARD1 encodes an acireductone dioxygenase involved in recycling of the ethylene precursor S-adenosylmethionine.
• These results suggest that OsARD may play a role in the metabolism of methionine and ethylene in response to abiotic stresses.
• OsARD was mainly expressed in roots under flood conditions.
