Gene Summary |
This gene is a key regulator of the salicylic acid (SA)-mediated systemic acquired resistance (SAR) pathway. It is similar to the transcription factor inhibitor I kappa B, and contains ankyrin repeats. It confers resistance to the pathogens Pseudomonas syringae and Peronospora parasitica in a dosage-dependent fashion. Although transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing NPR1 acquire enhanced sensitivity to SA and (benzothiadiazole) BTH, they display no obvious detrimental morphological changes and do not have elevated pathogenesis-related gene expression until activated by inducers or pathogens. |
