EGL1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoEGL1 (BOLC102_C09P016780.1) on cabbage chromosome 9 encodes a protein with MYC/MYB_N, bHLH, and HLH domains, and possesses DNA binding, transcription coactivator activity, promoter-specific chromatin binding, protein dimerization activity, ubiquitin-protein transferase activity, sequence-specific DNA binding, protein kinase activity, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, identical protein binding, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, and protein binding. It is associated with regulation of trichome spacing, upregulation of trichoblast fate, regulation of trichome morphogenesis, sucrose mediated signaling, proanthocyanidin anabolism, response to dexamethasone, stomatal complex formation, trichome spacing, plant epidermal cell fate specification, removal of O2-, cell fate commitment, regulation of protein localization, upregulation of protein export from nucleus, mucilage anabolism during seed coat development, root epidermal cell differentiation, pigmentation, regulation of primary metabolic process, and regulation of protein breakdown. The gene is linked to stem dry weight, root epidermal cell length, leaf elongation rate, flavonoid content, seed coat color, leaf trichome density, seed coat morphology trait, seed set percent, shoot system elongation rate, whole plant size, petal morphology trait, vegetative to reproductive phase transition trait, gibberellin biosynthesis trait, lignin biosynthesis trait, oleic acid content, plant male sterility, stamen morphology trait, phototropism response trait,
