lox — Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287

Summary

FOXG_15290 (symbol lox) on chromosome 5 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici 4287 encodes a protein with an amine oxidase domain and a FAD/NAD-binding superfamily domain, and has L-amino-acid oxidase activity. The gene is associated with induced systemic resistance, defense response, seed germination, and amino acid breakdown. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to L-amino-acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.2) and a flavin monoamine oxidase domain, though these associations are not established for this specific gene.
