F3H — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoF3H (BOLC102_C08P036840.1) on chromosome 8 of cabbage (Brassica oleracea) encodes a protein with flavanone 3-dioxygenase, flavonol synthase, chalcone isomerase, 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase, vitamin C binding, metal binding, and protein binding activities, belonging to the DIOX_N and IPNS-like Fe2OG oxygenase families. The gene is associated with anthocyanin, flavonoid, coumarin, phenylpropanoid, ethylene, and chlorophyll anabolism, chlorophyll metabolism and breakdown, pigmentation, responses to UV, UV-B, auxin, and fungal molecules, and localisation to the cytosol, ER, tonoplast, and nucleus. It is linked to leaf color, stamen morphology, root phototropism, UV-B light sensitivity, anthocyanin content, flavonoid content, proanthocyanidin accumulation, cold acclimation, photosynthetic activity, circadian clock regulation, oxidative stress tolerance, and resistance to cyst and root-knot nematodes. Related genes in other species are linked to seed coat pigmentation, UV-B tolerance, and flavonoid production.
