FATA — Brassica juncea

Summary

BJUA03G20720S (BjFATA, FATA) encodes a protein with acyl-ACP hydrolase activity and acyl carrier activity, belonging to the FATA/B and HotDog domain superfamilies. In Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) on chromosome A03, this gene is associated with fatty acid anabolism, fatty acid beta-oxidation, cell growth, and seed germination, and its product localises to the chloroplast. Related genes in other species link the FATA family to seed oil content, fatty acid composition, medium-chain fatty acid accumulation, and leaf oil content. The family is also connected to oleic acid content and photochemical quenching.
