lox — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G28089 (symbol lox) on chromosome 4 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a protein with a flavin monoamine oxidase domain and amine oxidase domain, and is annotated with L-glutamate oxidase activity, L-lysine oxidase activity, and L-amino-acid oxidase activity. This gene is associated with amino acid breakdown, signal transduction, seed germination, hyphal growth, and cell growth, and its product is localized extracellularly. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to additional L-amino-acid oxidase activities (EC 1.4.3.2, 1.4.3.11, 1.4.3.14, 1.4.3.25).
