FATA — Brassica juncea

Summary

BJUB01G20340S (BjFATA, FATA) encodes a protein with acyl-ACP hydrolase activity and acyl carrier activity, belonging to the FATA/B and HotDog domain superfamily. In Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) on chromosome B01, 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 leaf oil content, seed oil content, fatty acid composition, and medium-chain fatty acid accumulation. The family has also been connected to oleic acid content and photochemical quenching.
