FLIP — Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

Summary

BoFLIP, encoded by the gene BOLND125_C08P010700.1_BOLND125_V1 on chromosome 8 of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis), is a protein containing the DUF4487 domain and associated with protein binding. The gene is linked to nuclear and chromosomal localisation and is associated with biological processes including DNA metabolism, double-strand break repair, meiotic cell cycle, chiasma assembly, suppression of meiotic recombination, cell growth, cell cycle, response to gamma radiation, angiogenesis, and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Associations with traits include radiation response, cell cycle, disease tolerance, salt tolerance, and root morphology. The gene is also linked to meiotic crossover formation, fertility, homologous recombination, and pathogen resistance. Related genes in other species connect the family to meiotic recombination, DNA repair, and stress responses.
