GST — Brassica juncea

Summary

BJUA10G19261S (GST, BjTT19) on chromosome A10 of Indian mustard encodes a glutathione S-transferase (GST) of the Phi class, possessing glutathione transferase activity, glutathione binding, cation binding, and protein homodimerization activity. The gene is associated with regulation of flavonol biosynthetic process, pigmentation, photomorphogenesis, circadian rhythm, and responses to xenobiotic stimulus, herbicide, hydrogen peroxide, and salicylate. It is linked to seed color, anthocyanin accumulation, proanthocyanidin accumulation, flavonol content, and anthocyanin transport. The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm, nucleus, tonoplast, and macromolecular complexes. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to seed coat pigmentation, anthocyanin biosynthesis, and UV-B tolerance.
