Article Synopsis
- The late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) protein family, including the newly identified PgLEA from Pennisetum glaucum, helps protect proteins from aggregation caused by desiccation and osmotic stress.
- PgLEA's cDNA encodes a 176 amino acid protein, which shares a high sequence identity with similar plant proteins and exhibits chaperone activity that helps bacteria withstand heat and salinity stress.
- Analysis of PgLEA's promoter sequence reveals stress-responsive transcription factor binding sites, indicating its role in enhancing plant tolerance to abiotic stresses.
