Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os12g03822
• RAPdb gene ID: Os12g0132400
• Gene Symbol: RIP1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• We isolated a pollen-preferential gene, RICE IMMATURE POLLEN 1 (RIP1), from a T-DNA insertional population of japonica rice that was trapped by a promoterless beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene.
• Semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) analyses confirmed that the RIP1 transcript was abundant at the late stages of pollen development.
• Microscopic analysis demonstrated that development in the RIP1 pollen was delayed, starting at the early vacuolated stage.
• These results indicate that RIP1 is necessary for pollen maturation and germination.
• Therefore, RIP1 is probably a nuclear protein that may form a functional complex with other proteins and carry out essential cellular and developmental roles during the late stage of pollen formation.
• Rice Immature Pollen 1 (RIP1) is a regulator of late pollen development.
