PPC1 — Glycine max

Summary

GmPPC1 (GLYMA_12G229400V4) on soybean chromosome 12 encodes a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) with phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity, protein phosphorylated amino acid binding, and protein binding functions. The gene is associated with vitamin B6 and vitamin A metabolism, carboxylic acid anabolism, protein acetylation and tetramerization, phloem sucrose loading, riboflavin anabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, autotrophy, lipid storage, pigment anabolism, sulfur metabolism, stomatal opening, starch breakdown, triglyceride and wax anabolism, seed coat development, and cellulose anabolism. It has been linked to traits including amino acid content, net photosynthetic rate, nitrate transport and uptake, seed coat color, seed protein content, seed weight, chlorophyll content, drought tolerance, root length, and salt tolerance. The product localizes to the apoplast, vacuole, plasmodesma, chloroplast stroma, Golgi, mitochondria, cytosol, and plasmalemma.
