CPT — Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris
Summary
BVRB_7G172260 (symbol BvCPT) on sugar beet chromosome 7 encodes a prenyltransferase with isopentenyl diphosphate synthase (IPPS), zFPS, dimethylallylcistransferase, rubber cis-polyprenylcistransferase, and dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase activities, belonging to the UPP_synth-like family. The gene is associated with polyprenol and dolichyl monophosphate anabolism, plastid membrane organization, and response to cold. Its product localizes to chloroplast stroma, ER, mitochondria, and cytosol. BvCPT is linked to root yield and sugar content traits, as well as reduced long-chain polyisoprenoids and medium-chain-length polyprenol biosynthesis. Related genes in other species link the family to polyisoprenoid synthesis, dolichol accumulation, photosynthetic efficiency, cold stress response, chloroplast membrane dynamics, and photosynthesis.
