Calreticulin (CRT) is a Ca2+-binding multifunctional protein highly conserved in animals and plants. In Caenorhabditis elegans, CRT is required for stress response and fertility. In plant nematodes, esophageal secretions, also called stylet secretions, are produced by oesophageal subventral and dorsal glands cells and are secreted through the stylet during parasitism. These stylet secretions are thought to play a key role in the overall parasitic process. In addition, calreticulin plays an important role in nematode parasitism, development, and reproduction and can reduce plant immunity.
Lifeasible is committed to analyzing the function of calreticulin in plant nematodes for scientific purposes. Our experienced scientists and technicians can provide comprehensive customized services for our clients worldwide. With novel strategies and proprietary features of our platform, we can adjust to meet the needs of each client.
