FLS — Nicotiana attenuata

Summary

A4A49_12215 (FLS) in coyote tobacco (Nicotiana attenuata) encodes a protein with domains of the IPNS-like_FE2OG_OXY, DIOX_N, Oxoglu/Fe-dep_dioxygenase, and IPNS-like_sf families, and is annotated with flavonol synthase, (S)-norcoclaurine synthase, flavanone 3-dioxygenase, dioxygenase, 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase, vitamin C binding, and metal binding activities. The gene is associated with regulation of proanthocyanidin anabolism, morphine anabolism, flavonoid metabolism, proanthocyanidin anabolism, pigmentation, regulation of anthocyanin anabolism, pistil development, coumarin anabolism, PTGS, ethylene anabolism, anthocyanin anabolism, defense response to oomycetes, flavonoid anabolism, regulation of flower development, response to molecule of fungal origin, fruit ripening, pollen germination, and pollen tube growth. It is linked to traits including flower color, respiration rate, flavonoid content, root hair length, seed maturation, photosynthetic rate, and anthocyanin content. The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to leaf thickness, stomatal resistance, seed dormancy, and plant height.
