HAE — Brassica napus

Summary

BnHAE (DARMORV10_A08P34150.1) on chromosome A08 of oilseed rape encodes a protein with multiple annotated molecular functions including cycloeucalenol cycloisomerase activity, ATP:sulfate adenylyltransferase activity, peptide hormone binding, ammonium channel activity, chlorophyll binding, transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity, and signaling receptor binding. The gene is associated with diverse biological processes such as embryonic meristem development, radial axis specification, secondary thickening, lateral root branching, phloem loading, photosynthesis in photosystem II, and negative regulation of hydrogen peroxide biosynthesis. It is linked to numerous traits including floral organ size, root number, sucrose and starch content, oleic acid content, photosynthetic ability, plant male sterility, nitrate uptake, and cytokinin content. Localization evidence connects the product to thylakoid membranes, plastid stroma, endocytic vesicles, and the photosystem II oxygen-evolving complex.
