GST10 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoGST10 (GST10) on cabbage chromosome 6 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 glutathione metabolism, detoxification, response to herbicide, toxin breakdown, L-phenylalanine breakdown, auxin signaling, DNA repair, and hormone metabolism. It has been connected to systemic acquired resistance and localizes to the cytoplasm, plastid, and macromolecular complex. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to climate-associated traits such as temperature and precipitation variables, though these associations are not established for BoGST10 itself.
