FATB — Glycine max
Summary
GLYMA_06G211300V4 (GmFATB) encodes an acyl-ACP hydrolase with an acyl-ACP-thioesterase domain, belonging to the FATB family. The enzyme is localized to the plastid and is associated with fatty acid metabolism, including fatty acid elongation, anabolism, and triglyceride anabolism, as well as amino acid anabolism and NO storage. In soybean, GmFATB is linked to seed traits such as stearic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid content, as well as seed weight. It has also been connected to cutin monomer composition and the hypersensitive response. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to leaf oil content, metabolite profiles, and altered lipid metabolism affecting growth and fatty acid synthesis.
