fluG — Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287

Summary

FOXG_01301 (fluG) on chromosome 1 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287 encodes a protein with a glutamine synthetase N-terminal domain and a glutamine synthetase catalytic domain, and is annotated with hydrolase activity. The gene is associated with positive regulation of conidium formation, sporulation, sporocarp development involved in asexual reproduction, regulation of sterigmatocystin biosynthetic process, positive regulation of sterigmatocystin biosynthetic process, autolysis, regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis, sterigmatocystin anabolism, conidia formation, and spore formation. The encoded product is localized to the cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to oxidative stress response.
