HMG — Asparagus officinalis
Summary
A4U43_C01F22510 (AoHMG) encodes a protein containing an HMG-box domain and SSRP1-like domains, with DNA binding, nucleosome binding, histone binding, and transcription factor activity. It is a component of the FACT complex and localises to the nucleus, nucleolus, and euchromatin. The gene is associated with DNA replication, DNA repair, DNA-dependent transcription, karyogamy, polar nucleus fusion, excretion, cholesterol metabolism, system development, and the transition from vegetative to reproductive phase. It has been linked to flowering time, anthocyanin content, seed dormancy, leaf size, fertility, and plant growth and development traits. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to plant development, genomic imprinting, and DNA demethylation.
