E3 LIGASE CaAIRE1 GENE DERIVED FROM KOREAN DARK GREEN PEPPER VARIETY AND METHOD FOR ENHANCING DROUGHT STRESS RESISTANCE OF PLANTS USING SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to an E3 ligase CaAIRE1 gene derived from a Korean dark green pepper variety, a protein composed of an amino acid encoded by the gene, and a method for enhancing drought stress resistance of plants using the gene or the protein. The CaAIRE1 protein functions as a positive regulator of ABA signal transduction to confirm a drought stress resistance enhancement effect in a transgenic plant where the protein is overexpressed. Thus, expression regulation of the CaAIRE1 gene is expected to be used for modify crops, etc., which can be used by the human, and especially, be usefully used to enhance the productivity of the plants.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2020
