cheA — Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287

Summary

FOXG_12449 (symbol cheA) on chromosome 3 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287 encodes a protein containing FHY3/FAR1 and MULE transposase domains, with a FAR1 DNA-binding domain. The product is associated with multiple enzymatic activities annotated on this gene, including ketoacyl-ACP synthase, fatty acid synthase, ligase, isomerase, methyltransferase, and redox activities, as well as phosphopantetheine binding. It is linked to the biological processes of chemotaxis, toxin anabolism, fatty acid anabolism, and methylation. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to MULE transposase domain-containing functions and additional ligase and transferase activities, though these associations are not yet established for this specific gene.
