ESP — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_005G058900, designated PvESP, encodes a protein with a Kelch-type beta-propeller domain and is annotated with tRNA 4-demethylwyosine alpha-amino-alpha-carboxypropyltransferase activity, dynein intermediate chain binding, photoreceptor activity, fatty-acyl-CoA binding, lyase activity, and DNA-binding transcription factor activity. In French bean, PvESP is associated with thiocyanate metabolism, nitrile biosynthetic process, glucosinolate breakdown, regulation of jasmonic acid mediated signaling, response to ozone, hydrogen peroxide, bacteria, and salicylate, circadian rhythm, and blue light response. It is linked to traits including stem and leaf senescence, stomatal resistance, chlorophyll content, flowering time, disease tolerance, and drought response. Related genes in other species connect the family to glucosinolate hydrolysis to nitriles, herbivory resistance, and salicylic acid response.
