CHS — Arabidopsis thaliana

Summary

AT5G13930 (CHS, TT4) on chromosome 5 of Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a chalcone synthase family protein with naringenin-chalcone synthase activity (EC 2.3.1.74). This gene is associated with chalcone, quercetin, polyketide, and glutathione anabolism, as well as with pigment accumulation and responses to UV-A and nematode defense. It is linked to herbicide resistance. The gene is also associated with traits such as anthocyanin and chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, flowering time, and root phototropism. Studies of related genes in other species link the CHS family to flower and fruit color, disease resistance, and antioxidant capacity.
