NAR1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_003G085301, designated PvNAR1, encodes a protein containing iron hydrogenase domains (Fe_hydrogenase_ssu, Fe_hydrogenase_lsu_C) and a cytosolic Fe-S cluster assembly factor (CAF) domain. In French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, chromosome 3), this gene is associated with response to oxygen levels and localises to both the cytosol and nucleus. Related genes in other species link the family to plant growth and development traits, as well as energy metabolism and general plant development. The gene has also been connected to miscellaneous other traits and the clim-gs5 phenotype through sequence similarity with relatives in other species.
