C4H — Brassica napus
Summary
BnC4H (DARMORV10_A03P17060.1) on chromosome A03 of oilseed rape encodes a cytochrome P450 enzyme with trans-cinnamate 4-monooxygenase activity and binds iron and heme. This gene is associated with phenylpropanoid, lignin, flavonoid, pigment, fatty acid, ubiquinone and hormone metabolism, as well as seed and pollen development, wound response, light response, and pigmentation. It has been linked to seed color, lignin content and deposition, male fertility, plant growth, lateral and adventitious root development, Casparian strip formation, auxin transport, and hyperhydricity. The encoded protein localises to the endoplasmic reticulum, membrane, plasmodesma, Golgi, vacuole, cell wall, nucleus and extracellular space. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to lignification, dwarfism, altered phenylpropanoid metabolism, male sterility, and abiotic stress adaptation.
