Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os12g14440
• RAPdb gene ID: Os12g0247700
• Gene Symbol: OsJAC1
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Transgenic overexpression of OsJAC1 in rice resulted in quantitative broad-spectrum resistance against different pathogens including bacteria, oomycetes and fungi.
• Both protein domains of OsJAC1 are required to establish resistance as indicated by single or combined transient expression of individual domains.
• Altogether, our results identify OsJAC1 as a representative of a novel type of resistance proteins derived from a plant-lineage specific gene fusion event for better function in local pathogen defense.
• ) gene OsJAC1 encoding a mannose-binding jacalin-related lectin, and found that OsJAC1 was jasmonic acid (JA) inducible.
• In addition, compared with coleoptiles of wild-type plants, those of OsJAC1 overexpression rice were more sensitive to JA treatment.
• And methyl jasmonate could induce the expression of OsJAC1.
