SNC1 is a TIR-NB-LRR type R protein (nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat) that functions as an intracellular immune receptor in plants.
SNC1 is part of the RPP5 locus, a cluster of paralogous disease resistance (R) genes that allows the plant to adapt to pathogens. 4. Summary Table: SNC1 Characteristics Description Protein Type TIR-NB-LRR (NLR) Immune Receptor Model Organism Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) Key Action Activates effector-triggered immunity Mutant Phenotype Constitutive activation (dwarfism) Interacting Partner TPR1 (Transcriptional corepressor) SnC1.rar
Nuclear localization of the SNC1 protein is essential for repressing miRNA and phasiRNA loci, amplifying immune responses. SNC1 is a TIR-NB-LRR type R protein (nucleotide-binding
