BOLC102_C08P012200.1_BOLC102_V1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoJAI1 (BOLC102_C08P012200.1) on cabbage chromosome 8 encodes a protein of the AIB/MYC-like family with a bHLH domain, and is annotated with BHLH transcription factor binding, transcription coactivator activity, transcription corepressor activity, and promoter-specific chromatin binding, among other molecular functions. The gene is associated with regulation of glucosinolate biosynthetic process, cellular response to sulfur starvation, drought recovery, positive regulation of seed maturation, and trichome spacing. It is linked to traits including seed length, tiller number, anther length, petal length, shoot elongation under submergence, leaf elongation rate, branch angle, stem length, seed protein content, iron concentration, and whole plant size. Localisation evidence places the product at the nuclear ubiquitin ligase complex, mediator complex, plasmodesma, and Golgi complex. Related genes in other species are associated with seed oil accumulation, resistance to bacterial pathogens and herbivory, photomorphogenesis, root architecture, and responses to nutrient deficiencies and abiotic stresses.
