ACO — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_008G213914, also known as PvACO, encodes a protein with ACC oxidase activity and 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase activity that binds vitamin C and metal ions. This gene is associated with ethylene anabolism, fruit ripening, leaf development, chlorophyll metabolism, coumarin anabolism, and responses to fungi and fungal molecules. It is linked to cellular response to fatty acid and NO storage. The encoded protein localizes to the cytosol, cytoplasm, stress granules, and extracellular space. Associations include seed weight, seed size, drought tolerance, respiration rate, cellulose and lignin content, ethylene sensitivity, disease resistance, and nitrogen deficiency response. Related genes in other species are linked to seedling growth.
