CYP707A1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoCYP707A1 (BOLC102_C01P014330.1) on cabbage chromosome 1 encodes a cytochrome P450 family protein with abscisic acid 8'-hydroxylase activity, oxidoreductase activity, monooxygenase activity, and heme and iron binding. The gene is associated with abscisic acid breakdown, response to abiotic stimulus, release of seed from dormancy, sterol metabolism, chlorophyll breakdown, response to red or far red light, response to AOS, MAPK cascade, response to thermal stimulus, response to hypoxia, NO storage, homeostasis, fruit ripening, cellular response to hypoxia, leaf senescence, ABA signaling, and response to heat. It is linked to chlorophyll content, stomatal density, rehydration response, abscisic acid metabolism, stomatal closure, seed dormancy, primary seed dormancy, postgermination growth, stomatal conductance, abscisic acid catabolism, abscisic acid level, ABA homeostasis, transpiration rate, stomatal development, high humidity response, lateral root emergence, seed germination, ABA metabolism, abscisic acid degradation, seed thermoinhibition, hypo-osmotic response, and drought stress tolerance. The encoded protein localizes to the ER membrane and is also associated with extracellular regions and membrane compartments. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to drought tolerance, ABA catabolism, stomatal responses to CO2 and light
