P450 — Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15

Summary

MGG_08795 (P450) on chromosome 6 of Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15 encodes a cytochrome P450 with long-chain fatty acid omega-hydroxylase activity, monooxygenase activity, heme and iron binding, and oxidoreductase activity acting on paired donors with oxygen incorporation. The gene is associated with serotonin, wax, oxylipin, mycotoxin, and terpenoid anabolism, as well as defense response, innate immunity, programmed cell death, cell death, cell wall thickening, spore germination, sporulation, actin polymerization, oxidative phosphorylation, xenobiotic metabolism, and detoxification. It is linked to lignin content and localizes to membranes. Related genes in other species connect the family to alkane hydroxylation.
