rbcL — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BVRB_038130 (symbol rbcL) on sugar beet chromosome 142291 encodes a protein with a RuBisCO_lsu_C domain and RuBisCO activity, magnesium binding, and monooxygenase activity. It is associated with the reductive pentose-phosphate cycle, photorespiration, and leaf development, and localises to the chloroplast. Related genes in other species link the RuBisCO large subunit family to chlorophyll content and fruit colour traits.
