CMO — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BVRB_013240 (symbol CMO, also known as BvCMO) in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) encodes a choline monooxygenase (EC 1.14.15.7), a Rieske-type iron-sulfur protein with a ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase alpha-subunit C-terminal domain that localises to the chloroplast stroma. This gene is associated with response to salt, salinity response, and NO storage, as well as the biological process GO:0019285 and GO:0015979. It has been connected to drought tolerance, salt stress tolerance, leaf relative water content, chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate, quantum yield, flavonoid content, and photosynthetic rate. Related genes in other species link the family to salt tolerance, and similar evidence has been reported in tobacco.
