R3 — Phaseolus vulgaris
Summary
PHAVU_007G228300, designated PvR3 (also known as R3 or PvR4DT-1) on French bean chromosome 7, encodes a UbiA prenyltransferase family protein with trihydroxypterocarpan dimethylallyltransferase, HGGT and HPT activities. The product localises to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane and is associated with vitamin E biosynthesis, 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 soluble protein and protein content, though these associations are not yet established in Phaseolus vulgaris.
