GLYMA_13G347500V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_13G347500v4 on soybean chromosome 13 encodes a lipoxygenase enzyme with linolenate 9R-lipoxygenase, linoleate 9S-lipoxygenase, and linoleate 13S-lipoxygenase activities, and oxidoreductase activity acting on single donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen. The protein contains lipoxygenase and PLAT/LH2 domains and localizes to the cytoplasm. This gene is associated with the lipoxygenase pathway, oxylipin metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, lipid oxidation, and response to lipid. It has been linked to seed weight, protein content, seed coat color, chlorophyll content, drought tolerance, and salt tolerance. Additional associations include nitrogen fixation, cellular respiration, sensory perception, and virus-induced PTGS. Related genes in other species link the family to plant height and days to maturity.
