GAPC — Cucumis melo

Summary

MELO3C008219.2 (GAPC, CmGAPC) on melon chromosome 4 encodes a protein with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase domains and NAD(P)-binding domains, annotated with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP) and (NAD+) (phosphorylating) activities, as well as fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, phospholipase D, and histone acetyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with glycolytic, gluconeogenic, and pentose-phosphate shunt processes, aerobic respiration, redox and ROS metabolic responses, anoxia and UV responses, auxin polar transport, and epigenetic regulation. It is linked to traits including grain yield, photosynthetic rate, respiration rate, germinability at low temperature, drought and salinity tolerance, freezing tolerance, disease tolerance, leaf and stem senescence, root morphology and thickness, stomatal closure, and auxin and ethylene sensitivity. Localisation evidence connects the product to the plasma membrane, mitochondrial envelope, chloroplast envelope, vacuole, cell wall, and apoplast.
