DGAT3 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsDGAT3 (CSA17G078890) in Camelina sativa encodes a protein with a DGAT3_N domain and a thioredoxin-like superfamily domain, and is annotated with diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity, Fe/S binding, and metal binding. This gene is associated with triglyceride anabolism, nitric oxide storage, and seed germination, and its product localises to the cytosol and cytoplasm. CsDGAT3 is linked to triacylglycerol accumulation and temperature tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to powdery mildew resistance, lipid metabolism, triacylglycerol synthesis, wheat powdery mildew disease response, high temperature stress response, and photochemical quenching.
