CCR2 — Brassica oleracea
Summary
BoCCR2 (BOLC102_C08P061960.1) on cabbage chromosome 8 encodes a CrtISO-like protein with carotenoid isomerase activity and redox activity, placing it in the amine oxidase and FAD/NAD-binding superfamilies. The gene is associated with carotenoid anabolism, etioplast organization, flower formation, and lipid metabolism, and its product localizes to the chloroplast membrane. BoCCR2 has been connected to flower color and plastid development, as well as carotenoid composition. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to carotene and carotenoid content, petal and leaf color, plastid development traits, lignin content, prolamellar body formation, altered carotene accumulation, reduced lutein, delayed greening, chlorophyll accumulation, and photomorphogenesis.
