PEP — Nicotiana attenuata
Summary
A4A49_32870, designated PEP (PAS2A) in coyote tobacco (Nicotiana attenuata) on scaffold00217, encodes a protein with very-long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase activity (EC 4.2.1.134) and belongs to the Tyr_Pase-like_PTPLA domain family. The gene is associated with very-long-chain fatty acid metabolism and elongation, sphingolipid anabolism, suberin biosynthesis, cuticle development, trichome papilla formation, cell polarization, symmetric cell division, and regulation of the G1/S phase transition. It has been linked to traits including nitrate transport and uptake, root mass density and length, chlorophyll content, drought tolerance, high temperature stress response, plant male sterility, and leaf composition. Related genes in other species are linked to cell proliferation, auxin transport, cuticular wax biosynthesis, root suberin deposition, male gametophyte development, and embryo viability.
