HMG — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoHMG (BOLC102_C02P061440.1_BOLC102_V1) on cabbage chromosome 2 encodes a protein containing SSRP1/POB3, HMG-box, and histone chaperone domains. The gene product exhibits nucleosome, histone, DNA, and protein binding activities, and DNA-binding transcription factor activity. BoHMG is associated with the FACT complex, euchromatin, nucleolus, and nucleus. It is associated with cholesterol import and anabolism, excretion, karyogamy, fermentation, polar nucleus fusion, system development, DNA replication and repair, NO storage, and the vegetative-to-reproductive phase transition. Trait associations include flowering time, anthocyanin content, seed dormancy, leaf size, leaf number, fertility, and plant growth and development. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to plant development, DNA demethylation, and genomic imprinting.
