DARMORV10_C05P09290.1 — Brassica napus

Summary

DARMORV10_C05P09290.1 on oilseed rape (Brassica napus) chromosome C05 encodes a protein serine/threonine kinase with ATP binding activity, containing a protein kinase domain and serine/threonine kinase active site. This gene is associated with a wide range of biological processes including ALA metabolism, fatty acid breakdown, ascorbate metabolism, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, hormone anabolism, glutathione metabolism, syngamy, response to freezing, morphogenesis, regulation of gene expression, seed germination, seedling development, protein phosphorylation, ABA signaling, defence response to bacteria, response to thirst, and signal transduction. It is linked to the cytoplasm and nucleus. The gene has been connected to heterosis, seed weight, and drought tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to non-canonical protein kinase activity (EC 2.7.11.1) and branch angle.
