LEG — Glycine max
Summary
GmLEG (GLYMA_03G163533V4) on soybean chromosome 3 encodes a cupin-family seed storage protein with alpha-amylase inhibitor activity, nutrient reservoir activity, and IgE binding. It is associated with protein storage, seed development, seed germination, embryogenesis, nodulation, proline metabolism, NO storage, and digestion. The protein localises to the protein storage vacuole, endoplasmic reticulum, and extraorganismal space. GmLEG is linked to seed protein content, amino acid content, oligosaccharide content, and seed maturation. Studies of related genes in other species connect this family to seed weight, seed size, seed dormancy, root length, and soluble protein, glucose, and starch content.
