USP — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PvUSP (PHAVU_007G264400) on chromosome 7 of French bean encodes a protein containing a Universal_stress_UspA domain and a Rossmann-like a/b/a fold. The gene is associated with NO storage, embryogenesis, microsporogenesis, and response to abscisic acid, and its product localises to the cytosol, cytoplasm, and nucleus. PvUSP is also linked to flowering time. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to seed maturation, starch and protein content, larger seeds with slower germination, delayed germination and inflorescence formation, pollen fertility, cell wall composition, and circadian rhythm.
