RS2 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_001G135200 (PvRS2) encodes a protein with glycosyl hydrolase 36, aldolase_TIM, and GH_hydrolase_sf domains. It has galactinol-raffinose galactosyltransferase, raffinose alpha-galactosidase, raffinose synthase, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, identical protein binding, protein homodimerization, DNA binding, DNA binding transcription factor, and protein binding activities. In French bean, this gene is associated with raffinose breakdown, stachyose anabolism, oligosaccharide anabolism, proximodistal axis specification, regulation of innate immune response, leaf formation, polarity specification of adaxial/abaxial axis, asymmetric cell division, response to virus, response to oxidative stress, nodulation, downregulation of transcription, defence response to bacteria, and defence response to fungi. It is linked to raffinose content, flower abscission zone morphology, sepal morphology, leaf margin morphology, fruit growth and development, petal morphology, shoot meristem development, meristem tissue development, cotyledon morphology, shoot apical meristem development, light intensity response, cell cycle, leaf morphology, leaf composition, hypocotyl morphology, flowering time, and drought tolerance. The gene localizes to condensed chromosome, nucleolus, plasmodesma, cytoplasm, and nucleus. Related genes in other species link the family to gynoecium and fruit patterning.
