== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q306J3_ORYSJ Q306J3_ORYSJ] Dirigent proteins impart stereoselectivity on the phenoxy radical-coupling reaction, yielding optically active lignans from two molecules of coniferyl alcohol in the biosynthesis of lignans, flavonolignans, and alkaloids and thus plays a central role in plant secondary metabolism.[RuleBase:RU363099]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Pesticides are routinely used to prevent severe losses in agriculture. This practice is under debate because of its potential negative environmental impact and selection of resistances in pathogens. Therefore, the development of disease resistant plants is mandatory. It was shown that the rice (Oryza sativa) protein OsJAC1 enhances resistance against different bacterial and fungal plant pathogens in rice, barley, and wheat. Recently we reported possible carbohydrate interaction partners for both domains of OsJAC1 (a jacalin-related lectin (JRL) and a dirigent (DIR) domain), however, a mechanistic understanding of its function is still lacking. Here, we report crystal structures for both individual domains and the complex of galactobiose with the DIR domain, which revealed a new carbohydrate binding motif for DIR proteins. Docking studies of the two domains led to a model of the full-length protein. Our findings offer insights into structure and binding properties of OsJAC1 and its possible function in pathogen resistance.
