BIT1 — Cucumis sativus

Summary

CsBIT1 (CSA_1G109320) on cucumber chromosome 1 encodes a protein with a Myb domain and SANT/Myb domain, and is associated with chromatin binding, sequence-specific DNA binding, ubiquitin ligase activity, ubiquitin-protein transferase activity, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, identical protein binding, DNA binding, DNA binding transcription factor activity, and protein binding. It is localized to the nucleus, nuclear ubiquitin ligase complex, nuclear body, and Cul4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. The gene is associated with axillary shoot meristem initiation, pigment anabolism, the shikimate pathway, anthocyanin metabolism, regulation of lignin anabolism, positive regulation of flavonoid anabolism, developmental process, blue light signaling pathway, entrainment of circadian clock, photoperiodism (flowering), green leaf volatile biosynthetic process, anther wall tapetum development, skotomorphogenesis, response to UV-B, regulation of stomatal movement, circadian rhythm, regulation of gene expression, and homeostasis. It is linked to traits including viral disease response, phototropism response, photoperiod-sensitive flowering time, stem diameter, UV-B light sensitivity, adventitious rootless, stamen length, cotyledon morphology, trichome morphology, light intensity response, brassinosteroid sensitivity, ethylene sensitivity, chloroplast development, leaf size, abiotic plant stress response, stomatal complex closure time, anthocyanin content,
