BIP — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_13G112600V4, also known as GmBIP, encodes a protein with DNA-binding and transcription factor activity, featuring ARF, AUX/IAA, and B3 DNA-binding domains. It is associated with auxin-mediated signaling, nitrate import, root hair differentiation, leaf senescence, and autophagy regulation. The gene is linked to numerous traits including root dry weight, leaf water potential, adventitious root number, phototropism, phyllotaxy, plant male sterility, and gibberellin biosynthesis. Localization evidence connects the product to the nucleus, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, and vesicles. Related genes in other species are linked to lateral root development, vascular tissue specification, flowering time, and stress responses.
