ERF1 — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LSAT_V11C700356610, designated ERF1 on garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa) chromosome 7, encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor containing an AP2/ERF domain. The product localises to the nucleus and is annotated with sequence-specific DNA binding and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activities. ERF1 is associated with the regulation of ethylene-mediated signalling, ethylene anabolism, gibberellin biosynthesis, and defence responses. It has also been connected to fruit ripening, seed germination, and translation elongation. Related genes in other species are linked to floral sex determination.
