R3 — Phaseolus vulgaris
Summary
PHAVU_007G228100, designated PvR3 on French bean chromosome 7, encodes a UbiA prenyltransferase family protein with trihydroxypterocarpan dimethylallyltransferase, HGGT and HPT activities. The product is localised to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane and is associated with vitamin E anabolism, cellular response to UV-B, root development and histogenesis. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to seed coat colour, flavonoid content and protein content, though these associations are not yet established in Phaseolus vulgaris.
