GLYMA_11G221000V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_11G221000v4 on soybean chromosome 11 encodes a rubisco activator, an ATP hydrolase that binds ATP and identical proteins. The product belongs to the RuBisCO_activase_AAA_helical and RCA-like families. This gene is associated with regulation of photosynthesis, stomatal opening, response to water and heat, circadian rhythm, chlorophyll anabolism, ATP anabolism, autotrophy, water transport, signal transduction, NO storage, and chlorophyll fluorescence. It localises to the thylakoid and chloroplast stroma. Traits linked to this gene include photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll content, photochemical quenching, stomatal resistance, drought tolerance, seed protein content, seed weight, root length, phosphorus uptake, and auxin content. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to canopy temperature, stem length, germination rate, and salt tolerance.
