PAT — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DCAR_020247 (PAT, DcPAT) on carrot chromosome 6 encodes a protein with a ubiquitin-like domain and a ribosomal eL40 domain, annotated with structural constituent of ribosome, ubiquitin-protein transferase activity, thiol-dependent deubiquitinase, histone methylase activity, and core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding. The gene is associated with modification-dependent proteolysis, deubiquitination, regulation of abscisic acid anabolism, cellular response to salicylate stimulus, upregulation of defense response to oomycetes, and activation of defense response to bacteria. It is linked to seed dormancy, seed morphogenesis, endosperm development, stomatal lineage progression, trichome branching, and response to freezing and thermal stimulus. Associations with agronomic traits include leaf necrosis, chlorophyll content, biomass yield, root mass density, plant height, flowering time, seed dormancy, pollen fertility, disease tolerance, and salt tolerance.
