R3 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_007G228400, designated PvR3, encodes a UbiA prenyltransferase family protein with trihydroxypterocarpan dimethylallyltransferase, HGGT, and HPT activities, and is localized to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane. In French bean, this gene is associated with vitamin E anabolism, cellular response to UV-B, histogenesis, and root development. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to seed coat color, flavonoid content, and protein content, though these associations are not yet established in Phaseolus vulgaris.
