| Abstract | Arabidopsis gene At5g09530 has been previously annotated as a cell wall protein of either the hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (HRGP), extensin-like, or proline-rich protein families (e.g. PRP10). However, At5g09530 shows important differences between its amino acid sequence and these other proteins. At5g09530 lacks any motifs typical of major groups of cell wall proteins, but contains 36 repeats of a unique pentapeptide (Pro-Glu-Leu|Ile|Val-Pro-Lys), which we have named the PELPK motif. This motif is repeated in only one other Arabidopsis protein (At5g09520), but proteins containing repeated PELPK motifs are found in many other angiosperms. At5g09530 is predicted to encode an intrinsically disordered protein. We characterized the phenotype of transgenic Arabidopsis with either reduced (RNAi) or increased constitutive (35S promoter) transcript expression of At5g09530. RNAi lines exhibited significantly slower germination and root growth, while overexpression lines had accelerated germination and root growth compared to wild type. Similarly, when grown on soil, RNAi lines had delayed growth and flowering, while overexpression lines had accelerated growth and flowering as compared to wild type. Based on amino acid composition, the presence of a distinct repeated pentapeptide motif and predicted intrinsically disordered structure, we conclude that At5g09530 is not an HRGP, PRP, or extensin-like protein. Because At5g09530 is a distinct and conserved protein, we propose to name it PELPK1, and to name its presumptive inparalog (At5g09520) PELPK2. PELPK1 is necessary for normal rates of germination and growth, while overexpression of PELPK1 is sufficient to accelerate germination and growth. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
