Self-incompatibility (SI) in Brassica species is controlled by a single polymorphic locus (S) with multiple specificities. Two stigmatically expressed genes that have been cloned from this region encode the S locus glycoprotein (SLG) and S receptor kinase (SRK). Both appear to be essential for the operation of SI. It is believed that rejection of incompatible pollen grains is effected by recognition events between an as yet unidentified S locus–encoded pollen coating–borne protein and the SLG/SRK. We previously identified a small pollen coat protein PCP7 (renamed here PCP-A1, for pollen coat protein, class A, 1) that binds with high affinity to SLGs irrespective of S genotype. Here, we report the cloning of PCP-A1 from Brassica oleracea and demonstrate that it is unlinked to the S locus. In situ localization of PCP-A1 transcripts revealed that they accumulate specifically in pollen at the late binucleate/trinucleate stage of development rather than in the tapetum, which previously was taken to be the principal source of the pollen coat. PCP-A1 is characterized by the presence of a structurally important motif consisting of eight cysteine residues shared by the plant defensins. Based on the presence of this motif and other data, homology modeling has been used to produce a putative structure for PCP-A1. Protein–protein interaction analyses demonstrate that SLG exists in monomeric and dimeric forms, both of which bind PCP-A1. Evidence is also presented for the existence of putative membrane-associated PCP-A1 binding proteins in stigmatic tissue.
