HAG1 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsHAG1 (CSA02G068380, also known as MYB28, HAG1, PMG1, CsMYB28, and MYB330) on Camelina sativa chromosome 2 encodes a Myb-domain transcription factor with sequence-specific DNA binding, transcription factor activity, and binding to chromatin, calcium ions, kinases, and bHLH proteins. It localizes to the nucleus. The gene is associated with the regulation of glucosinolate biosynthetic processes, including both aliphatic and indolic glucosinolate anabolism, as well as the shikimate pathway, lignin and flavonoid anabolism, secondary cell wall biogenesis, and stomatal complex development. CsHAG1 is linked to responses to sulfur starvation, desiccation, hyperosmotic salinity, insects, and oxidative stress, and to traits including seed protein content, shoot elongation under submergence, phosphorus response, branch angle, root mass density, lateral root length, flowering time, and disease tolerance.
