WNK9 — Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

Summary

BoWNK9 (BOLND125_C09P005440.1_BOLND125_V1) on cauliflower chromosome 9 encodes a protein with a WNK (With No Lysine) serine/threonine kinase domain and a CCT domain. It is annotated to protein serine kinase activity, protein kinase activity, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, ATP binding, protein phosphorylation, intracellular signal transduction, and ABA signaling, and localises to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Related genes in other species link the family to drought tolerance, ABA sensitivity, stomatal aperture, water loss, root elongation, and proline accumulation.
