NUCEOTIDE SEQUENCE, AMINO ACID SEQUENCE, AND FUNCTION OF 2-CYS PEROXIREDOXIN GENE(VRMLT63) IN THE MUNGBEAN

摘要

Provided is an apoptosis-related 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin gene(Vrmlt63), which is separated from mung beans and expressed by stresses. A 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin gene(Vrmlt63) has base sequence of SEQ ID NO:1. An amino acid sequence encoding low-temperature resistant proteins is indicated as SEQ ID NO:2. The 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin gene is induced by wound stresses, low temperature and oxidation. The 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin gene includes amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. The proteins induced by the gene have a function of antioxidant enzyme. The 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin is well-known for removing active oxygen.
