Research Abstract

polished rice(pri) encodes extremely small 11 or 32 aa-long peptides that do notinclude any signatures of secretion signal peptide sequences, and therefore its gene products should be of novel type of bioactive molecules. To elucidate molecular mechanisms underlying pri function, we found prigenetically interacts with shavenbaby(svb). svbencodes a transcription factor and is hydrolysed and activated only in the presence of PRI peptides.
