PAL — Lactuca sativa
Summary
LsPAL (LSAT_V11C600310220) on lettuce chromosome 6 encodes a phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, an enzyme with ammonia-lyase activity. It is associated with the breakdown of L-phenylalanine and salicylic acid, the biosynthesis of cinnamic acid and phenylpropanoids, and the regulation of phenylpropanoid metabolism. The gene has been linked to responses to UV-B, wounding, oxidative stress, low humidity, and drought recovery, as well as to guard cell fate commitment and differentiation. Associations with agronomic traits include shoot fresh weight, photosynthetic rate, respiration rate, UV light sensitivity, disease resistance, chilling tolerance, salt stress tolerance, freezing tolerance, and resistance to Corynespora cassiicola and Cucumber mosaic virus. The encoded protein localises to the cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and SCF complex.
