lox — Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287

Summary

FOXG_13235 (symbol lox) on chromosome 12 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287 encodes a protein with an amine oxidase domain and a FAD/NAD-binding superfamily domain. The enzyme exhibits L-glutamate oxidase, L-lysine oxidase, and L-amino-acid oxidase activities. This gene is associated with amino acid breakdown, defense response, induced systemic resistance, and seed germination, and its product is localized extracellularly. Related genes in other species are linked to L-amino-acid oxidase activity (EC 1.4.3.2, 1.4.3.11, 1.4.3.14, 1.4.3.25) and a flavin monoamine oxidase domain.
