GLYMA_14G005700V4 — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_14G005700v4 on soybean chromosome 14 encodes a member of the AKR4A/B aldo-keto reductase family, possessing oxidoreductase activity and annotated with 6'-deoxychalcone synthase, codeinone reductase, and aldose reductase activities. This gene is associated with diverse biological processes including secondary metabolite biosynthesis, alkaloid anabolism, siderophore anabolism, the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, cellular respiration, fermentation, nitrogen fixation, phloem loading, stomatal opening, and seed maturation. It is linked to responses to iron ion and zinc starvation, cellular homeostasis, and protein synthesis. The encoded protein localizes to the cytosol. Associations with agronomically relevant traits include seed protein content, sulfur content, linoleic acid content, and photochemical quenching. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to NADP-dependent oxidoreductase activity and EC numbers 1.1.1.247, 1.1.1.285, and 2.3.1.170.
