30G — Lactuca sativa

Summary

Ls30G (gene symbol 30G, also known as TFT10, GF14-MU, and LsRCI1) on chromosome 4 of garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa) encodes a 14-3-3 domain-containing protein, placing it in the conserved 14-3-3 family. The gene is associated with the biological processes of protein localisation and signal transduction, and its product localises to the cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to diverse signalling and stress-response pathways, though these associations are not yet established for Ls30G itself. No direct evidence connects this lettuce gene to specific agronomic traits.
