PC1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_008G234700, designated PvPC1, encodes a centrin/CML-like protein with EF-hand domains that binds calcium ions and acts as an enzyme modulator. In French bean, this gene is associated with the endomembrane system, mitochondria, cytoplasm, and organelles generally. It is associated with decreased heat and salt tolerance and increased osmotic stress tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to seed thickness, seed weight, starch content, protein content, and flower color. PvPC1 is located on chromosome 8 and is also known as PvAPC1 or APC1.
