GST10 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoGST10 (GST10) on cabbage chromosome 4 encodes a glutathione S-transferase (GST) of the Theta class (GSTT1/2/3), possessing glutathione transferase activity, glutathione binding, and maleylacetoacetate isomerase activity. The gene is associated with detoxification, glutathione metabolism, toxin breakdown, L-phenylalanine breakdown, response to herbicide, auxin signaling, DNA repair, and hormone metabolism. It is linked to systemic acquired resistance and is localized to the cytoplasm and plastid. Related genes in other species connect the family to glutathione transferase activity (EC 2.5.1.18) and to climate-related phenotypes such as temperature and precipitation variables, though these associations are not established for cabbage.
