R3 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PvR3 (PHAVU_007G227900) on chromosome 7 of French bean encodes a UbiA prenyltransferase family protein with trihydroxypterocarpan dimethylallyltransferase, HGGT, and HPT activities. The gene is associated with vitamin E anabolism, cellular response to UV-B, histogenesis, and root development. Its product localizes to the chloroplast membrane and thylakoid membrane. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to seed coat color, flavonoid content, and protein content traits.
