APIC — Brassica juncea
Summary
BJUB02G37400S (symbol APIC, also known as BjTT19 and BjGSTF12) on chromosome B02 of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) encodes a glutathione S-transferase (GST) containing GST_C and thioredoxin-like domains. The enzyme exhibits glutathione transferase activity, cation and glutathione binding, and protein homodimerization activity. It is associated with regulation of flavonol biosynthetic process, anthocyanin metabolism, pigmentation, photomorphogenesis, circadian rhythm, and responses to herbicides, hydrogen peroxide, salicylate, and xenobiotic stimulus. The protein localises to the cytoplasm, nucleus, tonoplast, and macromolecular complexes. This gene is linked to seed color, flavonol content, and anthocyanin-related phenotypes. Related genes in other species are associated with seed coat pigmentation, anthocyanin biosynthesis, and UV-B tolerance.
