FDC2 — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BvFDC2 (BVRB_5G106170) on sugar beet chromosome 5 encodes a protein with a 2Fe-2S_ferredoxin-type domain and 2Fe-2S cluster binding and electron transfer activity. The gene is associated with the photosynthetic electron transport chain, response to light stimulus, and signal transduction. It is linked to salt stress response and homeostasis, and its product localises to the chloroplast and etioplast stroma. BvFDC2 is also associated with thylakoid membrane development. Related genes in other species are linked to chlorophyll biosynthesis and content, as well as to root and sulfur-related traits.
