ZEB1 — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G13987 (ZEB1) on chromosome 2 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a protein with FAD-binding and BBE domains, classified as an isomerase with FAD binding and redox activity. The gene is associated with the zearalenone biosynthetic process and terpenoid anabolism, and its product is localized extracellularly. ZEB1 has been linked to mycotoxin content. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to oxidoreductase and isomerase activities, though these functions are not established for ZEB1 itself.
