TAIR Computational Description | Class II aminoacyl-tRNA and biotin synthetases superfamily protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | The IBI1 gene encodes an aspartyl tRNA synthetase (AspRS). In addition, the IBI1 protein acts as a receptor protein of the chemical plant defence activator beta-aminobutyric acid (BABA). Binding of IBI1 to the active R-enantiomer of BABA primes non-canonical defence activity of the AspRS protein against pathogen attack. |
