PAT — Nicotiana attenuata

Summary

A4A49_57716 (PAT/UBQ10) in coyote tobacco (Nicotiana attenuata) encodes a protein with ubiquitin family domains, and is associated with thiol-dependent deubiquitinase activity, protein tag function, structural constituent of ribosome activity, blue light photoreceptor activity, phytochrome binding, FMN binding, steroid binding, and protein kinase activities. The gene is linked to modification-dependent proteolysis, deubiquitination, regulation of photosynthesis and proton transport, chloroplast accumulation movement, negative gravitropism, de-etiolation, and responses to red/far-red light and water-immersion stress. Associations include traits such as biomass yield, water use efficiency, carotenoid content, flowering time, phototropism, shoot elongation under submergence, leaf and petal morphology, viral disease response, and brassinosteroid sensitivity. Related genes in other species link the family to leaf development, flowering time, fertility, salt and drought tolerance, and abscisic acid signaling.
