ENP — Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare

Summary

HORVU.MOREX.R3.7HG0727650, designated HvENP, encodes an NPH3 domain-containing protein belonging to the NPH3/RPT2-like family. This gene is associated with diverse biological processes including auxin transport, gibberellin biosynthesis, cholesterol anabolism, fatty acid anabolism, lipid metabolism, fermentation, protein ubiquitination, water transport, syngamy, and PH reduction. It is linked to root shape, root number, root length, leaf shape, seed germination, and salt tolerance (SALTTL). Related genes in other species, including CPT1 and OS02T0568200-01, are linked by sequence similarity, though these associations are not yet established for HvENP itself.
