FADS1 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA13G003380 (symbol FADS1) in Camelina sativa chromosome 13 encodes a protein with FAD diphosphatase and FMN adenylyltransferase activities, supported by ATP binding and metal-binding domains. The product belongs to the MoaB/Mog-like and PAPS_reduct families and is localised to the cytosol and cytoplasm. Annotated biological processes include response to fatty acid, FAD anabolism, and homeostasis. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to root morphology traits, though this association is not yet established in camelina. The gene is also connected to FAD synthase and FLAD1_M domains through sequence similarity. Overall, FADS1 is associated with flavin cofactor metabolism and cellular responses to fatty acids.
