LEC1 — Camelina sativa
Summary
CsLEC1 (CSA17G028800) in Camelina sativa encodes a DNA-binding transcription activator specific to RNA polymerase II, belonging to the NF-YB/HAP3 transcription factor family with a histone-fold domain. It is associated with the CCAAT-binding factor complex and localizes to the nucleus, plastid, cytosol, and extracellular regions. The gene is linked to positive regulation of fatty acid anabolism, lipid metabolism, embryo development ending in seed dormancy, flower development, photomorphogenesis, and blue light signaling. It is associated with seed length, starch and protein content, flowering time, abscisic acid sensitivity, disease tolerance, salt tolerance, and root morphology. Related genes in other species link the family to somatic embryogenesis, seed oil content, seed weight, fatty acid composition, seed dormancy, and pathogen resistance.
