Function

[RPS4_ARATH] Disease resistance (R) protein that specifically recognizes the AvrRps4 type III effector avirulence protein from P.syringae (PubMed:10571887, PubMed:15469494, PubMed:19519800). Resistance proteins guard the plant against pathogens that contain an appropriate avirulence protein via an indirect interaction with this avirulence protein (PubMed:10571887, PubMed:15469494, PubMed:19519800). That triggers a defense system including the hypersensitive response, which restricts the pathogen growth (PubMed:10571887, PubMed:15469494, PubMed:19519800). Probably acts as a NAD(+) hydrolase (NADase): in response to activation, catalyzes cleavage of NAD(+) into ADP-D-ribose (ADPR) and nicotinamide; NAD(+) cleavage triggering a defense system that promotes cell death (PubMed:31439792, PubMed:31439793). The combined presence of both regular and alternative RPS4 transcripts with truncated open reading frames (ORFs) is necessary for function (PubMed:17951452). RPS4 function is regulated at multiple levels, including gene expression, alternative splicing, and protein stability (PubMed:17951452). When over-expressed, confers temperature-conditioned EDS1-dependent auto-immunity (PubMed:24146667). Heterodimerization with RRS1 is required to form a functional complex to recognize AvrRps4 and PopP2 (PubMed:24744375). Abscisic acid deficiency enhances nuclear accumulation of RPS4 and its cell death-inducing activity (PubMed:22454454).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]
