CSA_5G157230 — Cucumis sativus

Summary

CSA_5G157230 on cucumber chromosome 5 encodes a bHLH domain-containing protein with sequence-specific DNA-binding and transcription factor activity, belonging to the MASH1/Ascl1a-like family. This gene is associated with RNA polymerase II transcription regulation and protein dimerization. It is linked to sex differentiation and determination, flower formation, fruit development and ripening, vasculature development, shoot development, morphogenesis, and pollen tube guidance. Associations also include pigmentation, anthocyanin and flavonoid anabolism, carbohydrate anabolism, and signal transduction. The gene is connected to female flowering traits. It localises to the RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex.
