Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: PpMAPKK5
  • Gene Name: P. persica mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 5
  • Genome: peach reference genome v2.0.a1
  • Species: Prunus persica

Functional Description:

  • In the MAPK cascade,PpMAPKK5 was identified as a shortcut interacting protein of PpTGA1 and increased the DNA binding activity of PpTGA1 for the activation of salicylic acid (SA)-responsive PR genes. The overexpression of PpMAPKK5 in Arabidopsis caused the constitutive transcription of SA-dependent PR genes and as a result conferred resistance against the fungus Rhizopus stolonifer.
  • when the PpPR1, PpPR2, or PpPR5 Pro-LUC reporter construct was coinfiltrated with PpMAPKK5 and PpTGA1, the LUC/REN ratios were intensely induced and were much higher than those observed with PpTGA1 alone. These results indicate that PpMAPKK5 could apparently enhance the transactivation of PpTGA1 to the target PR genes.
  • Heterologous expression of PpMAPKK5 elevates the resistance level to R. stolonifer and relieves cell death in Arabidopsis.These results confirm that the overexpression of PpMAPKK5 could contribute to the alleviation of cell damage and disease development.
