MMP — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris

Summary

BvMMP (BVRB_6G156030) encodes a metallopeptidase with metalloendopeptidase activity and zinc binding, belonging to the M10A_MMP matrix metalloproteinase family. The gene is associated with extracellular matrix organization, collagen breakdown, proteolysis, and localizes to the extracellular matrix, apoplast, and plasma membrane. It is linked to developmental vegetative growth, wound healing, negative regulation of leaf senescence, calcium signaling, regulation of photoperiodism and flowering, immune response, response to jasmonic acid, innate immunity, salinity response, and defence response to fungi. Associations with agronomic traits include nitrate content, drought stress tolerance, root growth and development, resistance to necrotrophic fungal pathogens, and leaf senescence. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to plant growth, flowering time, senescence, extracellular matrix remodeling, and susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea.
