CMO — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BVRB_6G146100, symbol CMO, encodes a choline monooxygenase (EC 1.14.15.7) with choline monooxygenase activity, binding 2Fe-2S clusters and iron, and localises to the chloroplast stroma. The gene is associated with response to salt, salinity response, and NO storage. It has been linked to leaf relative water content, flavonoid content, and chlorophyll content. Studies of related genes in other species connect the CMO family to salt stress tolerance, salt tolerance, drought tolerance, photosynthetic rate, quantum yield, net photosynthetic rate, and photochemical quenching.
