LAC3 — Phaseolus vulgaris
Summary
PHAVU_006G074000, designated PvLAC3 or PvLAC13, encodes a laccase enzyme (p-diphenol:oxygen oxidoreductase) with copper-binding and redox activity, belonging to the multicopper oxidase family. In French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) on chromosome 6, this gene is associated with lignin breakdown and lignin anabolism, and its product localises to the Casparian strip, apoplast, and extracellular space. PvLAC3 is linked to photosynthetic rate, seed yield, biomass, lignification, and Casparian strip formation. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to traits such as plant height, petiole length, days to flowering, and seed yield.
