ENP — Hordeum vulgare subsp. vulgare

Summary

HORVU.MOREX.R3.7HG0732100, designated HvENP on barley chromosome 7H, encodes an NPH3 domain-containing protein belonging to the NPH3/RPT2-like family. The gene is associated with diverse biological processes including auxin transport, gibberellin biosynthesis, cholesterol anabolism, fatty acid anabolism, lipid metabolism, fermentation, water transport, protein ubiquitination, PH reduction, and syngamy. HvENP has been 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.
