FRQ — Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15

Summary

MGG_17345 (MoFRQ) on chromosome 5 of Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15 encodes a protein of the FRQ family, which is uncharacterized in this species. The gene is associated with circadian rhythm, pigmentation, asexual reproduction, regulation of DNA-templated transcription, and histidine anabolism. The encoded product localizes to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. No direct enzyme or molecular function has been assigned to MoFRQ in M. oryzae.
