GGL2 — Brassica napus

Summary

BnGGL2 (GGL2, DARMORV10_A07P11030.1) on Brassica napus chromosome A07 encodes a GDSL/SGNH plant lipase-like protein with sinapine esterase, acetylajmaline esterase, serine O-acyltransferase, carboxylic ester hydrolase, glycosidase, lipase, acyltransferase and esterase activities, and is associated with IgE binding. The gene is associated with fatty acid breakdown, phosphatidylcholine anabolism, phospholipid metabolism, digestion, abscission, acetylcholine breakdown, fatty acid metabolism, ER organisation, secondary metabolism, isoprenoid anabolism, morphogenesis, lipolysis, NO storage, lipid metabolism, alkaloid metabolism, seed development, regulation of gene expression, seed germination, and localises to the symbiosome and extracellular region. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to yield, root mass density and root morphology traits.
