rtt109 — Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287

Summary

FOXG_09072 (symbol rtt109) on chromosome 9 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287 encodes a protein of the Rtt109 family with histone H3K56 acetyltransferase activity. This gene is associated with host invasion, regulation of DNA-templated transcription, DNA damage response, and DNA-dependent transcription. The encoded protein localises to the vacuole, chromatin, and nucleus. Related genes in other species are linked to histone acetylation and chromatin regulation, though these associations are not yet established for this specific gene.
