Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os04g57320
• RAPdb gene ID: Os04g0668900
• Gene Symbol: OsIM1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Sequence analysis revealed that the amino-acid sequence of OsIM1 showed 66% and 62% identity with PTOX from tomato ( Capsicum annuum) and AtIM from Arabidopsis, both of which encoded chloroplast-orientated terminal oxidase.
• The Northern blot revealed that OsIM1 was up-regulated by NaCl and ABA treatment.
• RT-PCR analysis indicated that OsIM1 and OsIM2 co-existed in the OsIM transcript pool, and the ratio of OsIM1/ OsIM2 was differentially regulated by salt stress in the salt-sensitive variety and the salt-tolerant varieties.
• A new AOX homologous gene OsIM1 from rice (Oryza sativa L.) with an alternative splicing mechanism under salt stress.
• A differentially expressed OsIM1 gene was isolated from rice salt-tolerant mutant M-20 by differential display.
