R3 — Phaseolus vulgaris
Summary
PHAVU_010G008800 (symbol PvR3) on chromosome 10 of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) 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 common bean.
