GAPC — Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Summary

DCAR_031180 (GAPC, DcGAPC) on carrot chromosome 9 encodes a protein with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP) activity and additional annotated molecular functions including fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, phospholipase D, voltage-gated monoatomic anion channel, and histone acetyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with glycolytic, gluconeogenic, and pentose-phosphate shunt processes, aerobic respiration, glucose metabolism, redox and ROS metabolic processes, retrograde response, and auxin polar transport. It is linked to traits such as grain yield, photosynthetic rate, respiration rate, germinability at low temperature, UV-B light sensitivity, ethylene and auxin sensitivity, drought and salinity tolerance, freezing tolerance, disease tolerance, root morphology, stem and leaf senescence, and stomatal closure. Localization evidence connects the product to the plasma membrane region, mitochondrial envelope, chloroplast envelope, vacuole, plant-type cell wall, and microtubule cytoskeleton.
