Biochemical Characterization of the Kinase Domain of the Rice Disease Resistance Receptor-like Kinase XA21

Evolution of the rice Xa21 disease resistance gene family.

The rice disease resistance gene Xa21, encoding a receptor-like kinase, is a member of a multigene family. Sequence analysis of seven family members revealed two distinct classes of genes. One member from each class encodes a receptor kinase-like open reading frame. The other five members encode truncated open reading frames of the predicted receptor kinase. A highly conserved 233-bp sequence (...

the stady and analysis of rice agroclimatology in lenjan

the west of esfahan province, iran, is one of the most important agricultural areas throughout the country due to the climate variability and life-giving water of zayanderood river. rice is one of the major and economic crops in this area. the most important climatic elements in agricultural activities which should be considered include temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and wind. so...

A catalytically impaired mutant of the rice Xa21 receptor kinase confers partial resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae

The rice Xa21 gene that confers resistance against Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae encodes a receptor-like kinase protein consisting of a presumed extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic protein kinase. To determine if the XA21 kinase domain is essential for transducing the defense response, we mutated the Lysine 736 of Xa21 to Glutamic acid (K736E) to construct XA21K736E. T...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
