GAPC — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DCAR_016414 (symbol DcGAPC) on carrot chromosome 5 encodes a protein with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD⁺) (phosphorylating) activity, NAD⁺/NADP⁺ binding, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase activity, phospholipase D activity, voltage-gated monoatomic anion channel activity, histone acetyltransferase activity, and salicylic acid binding. The gene is associated with glycolytic, gluconeogenic, pentose-phosphate, and aerobic respiration pathways, as well as phosphatidic acid metabolism, redox signal response, retrograde response, response to anoxia, response to UV, auxin polar transport, DNA damage response, and epigenetic regulation of gene expression. It localizes to the plasma membrane region, mitochondrial envelope, chloroplast envelope, vacuole, plant-type cell wall, and microtubule cytoskeleton. Associations include grain yield, photosynthetic rate, root morphology, stem and leaf senescence, photoperiod sensitivity, ethylene and auxin sensitivity, and tolerance to drought, salinity, freezing, high temperature, UV-B, and pathogens. Related genes in other species are linked to biomass, leaf senescence, actin organization, and thermotolerance.
