GLUTR — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoGLUTR (BOLC102_C01P039150.1, also known as BoHEMA1) on cabbage chromosome 1 encodes a glutamyl-tRNA reductase. The gene is associated with chlorophyll and heme anabolism, the chlorophyll cycle, porphyrin-containing compound biosynthesis, oxylipin and anthocyanin anabolism, pigmentation, photosynthetic electron transport, response to singlet oxygen and light stimulus, and post-embryonic development. Its product localises to the chloroplast thylakoid, envelope and stroma, as well as the cytosol and plasma membrane. BoGLUTR has been linked to leaf colour, chlorophyll content, chloroplast development, plant growth, light intensity response, arsenic concentration, and salt tolerance. Related genes in other species are associated with 5-aminolevulinic acid synthesis, plastid signalling, and salt tolerance.
