BG1 — Glycine max

Summary

GmBG1 (GLYMA_19G134700V4) on soybean chromosome 19 encodes a glycosyl hydrolase family 17 protein with glucan exo-1,3-beta-glucosidase, lichenase, cellulase, and glucan endo-1,3-beta-D-glucosidase activities, and also binds protein phosphorylated amino acids and proteins. The gene is associated with brassinosteroid-mediated signalling, response to cold, nitrogen fixation, nodulation, cell death, fermentation, flavonoid and isoflavonoid metabolism, phenylpropanoid anabolism, glutathione metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, spore germination, syngamy, secretion, vesicle transport, response to bacteria, and homeostasis. It is linked to traits including nitrate uptake, leaf composition, organ identity, seedling growth and development, phosphate acquisition, anthocyanin accumulation, abscisic acid biosynthesis, defense and disease resistance, systemic acquired resistance, dehydration resistance, salt tolerance, osmotic stress response, aphid susceptibility, callose deposition, resistance to Verticillium dahliae, cellulose and callose biosynthesis, cell proliferation, leaf development, seedling growth, and nitrate assimilation. The protein localises to secretory vesicles, vacuoles, the apoplast, plant-type cell wall, Golgi complex, extracellular space, mitochondria, and cytosol.
