LHY — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_7G118340 (LHY, MtLHY) encodes a pyrophosphatase with inorganic diphosphatase activity and magnesium binding, belonging to the pyrophosphatase superfamily. In barrel medic, this gene is associated with pyrophosphate and phosphate metabolism, signaling, circadian rhythm, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, sucrose and flavonoid metabolism, lipid storage, cell wall biogenesis, regulation of starch biosynthesis, and homeostasis. It localizes to the nucleus, cytosol, cytoplasm, and mitochondria. Phenotypic associations include root hair development, cell wall integrity, and pyrophosphate homeostasis. Related genes in other species link the family to seed storage protein content, oleic acid content, plant height, drought tolerance, and heterosis.
