CA1 — Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

Summary

BoCA1 (CA1) on cauliflower chromosome CBFFJS010000051.1 encodes a beta-carbonic anhydrase of the Beta_CA_cladeB family, possessing carbonic anhydrase, salicylic acid binding, peroxidase, mRNA binding, zinc ion binding and protein binding activities. It is associated with negative regulation of stomatal complex development, regulation of stomatal movement, response to carbon dioxide, heterotrophy, cell redox homeostasis, response to cold, and defence response to fungi. The protein localises to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane, envelope, stroma, stromule, apoplast, plasmalemma, cytosol and cytoplasm. Phenotypic associations include stomatal density and development, stomatal movement, light response and light-regulated gene expression, cold response, drought and salt tolerance, immunity, mitochondrial complex I assembly, embryo, seed and reproductive development, anther cell differentiation, and protein abundance. Studies of the Arabidopsis relative SABP3 link the family to disease resistance.
