GST1 — Brassica juncea

Summary

BJUB06G09080S (GST1) on Indian mustard chromosome B06 encodes a glutathione S-transferase (GST) with maleylacetoacetate isomerase activity, glutathione binding and transferase activities, and transglycosidase activity. The protein contains GST_C_Theta, GST_N_Theta, and thioredoxin-like domains. This gene is associated with detoxification, toxin breakdown, glutathione metabolism, L-phenylalanine breakdown, metabolic burst, glycoprotein anabolism, auxin signaling, and defense response. It is linked to the Golgi stack membrane and cytoplasm. Related genes in other species connect the GST zeta class family to similar detoxification and stress-related processes.
