OsNPR1 Rabbit pAb

Key positive factor of disease resistance. Plays an essential role in benzothiadiazole (BTH)-induced resistance to the blast fungus disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae. Involved in defense response against the bacterial blight disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Over-expression of NPR1/NH1 confers disease resistance to Xoo, but also enhances herbivore susceptibility . Functions as a transcriptional coactivator of TGA2.1 and LG2 in vitro. Involved in defense response against herbivore. Plants silencing NPR1/NH1 have increased herbivore-induced trypsin proteinase inhibitors and volatiles, which reduces the performance of the striped stem borer (SSB) Chilo suppressalis Synonyma: NH1, PR2, NPR1, NPR2, OsNH1, OsNPR1
