Primary Identifier | IPR003854 | Type | Family |
Short Name | GASA |
description | This is the GASA gibberellin regulated cysteine rich protein (GRPs) family. The expression of these proteins is up-regulated by the plant hormone gibberellin, most of these proteins have a role in plant development and some of its members have antimicrobial activity [, ]. There are 12 cysteine residues conserved within the alignment giving the potential for these proteins to possess 6 disulphide bonds.Included in this family are some GRPs found in fruits and pollens that have been identified as allergens, including peach Pru p 7, Japanese apricot Pru m 7, orange Cit s 7, pomegranate Pun g 7, and cypress pollen GRP [, , ]. |
