dc.description.abstractThe strategy of "complementation by functional sufficiency" was used to isolate a cDNA, designated XVSAP1, from a cDNA library constructed from dehydrated Xerophyta viscosa Baker leaves. Analysis of the cDNA sequence indicated a highly hydrophobic protein with six transmembrane regions. Southern blot analysis revealed that there are at least two copies of XVSAP1 in X. viscosa. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 49% identity to WCOR413, a low temperature-regulated protein from wheat. The protein also showed between 25% to 56% identity to WCOR413-like proteins from Arabidopsis thaliana.
