I14H — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C05F32280 (AoI14H) encodes a glycosyltransferase of the Glyco_trans_43 family with 1,4-beta-D-xylan synthase, xylosyltransferase, and galactosylgalactosylxylosylprotein 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with xylan and glucuronoxylan anabolism, secondary cell wall biogenesis, cell wall organization, and vascular tissue pattern formation. It is linked to rhamnogalacturonan I and mucilage pectin anabolism, mucilage extrusion from the seed coat, fruit and shoot development, and drought tolerance. The encoded protein localizes to the Golgi membrane, trans-Golgi network, and endosome. Related genes in other species are linked to xylan biosynthesis, seed mucilage architecture, cellulose distribution, xylan acetylation, and secondary cell wall thickening.
