GLN — Solanum lycopersicum

Summary

SOLYC01G080280.3 (symbol GLN, also known as GS2) encodes a glutamine synthetase, an enzyme with glutamine synthetase activity. The gene is associated with nitrate metabolism, ammonium assimilation, glutamine synthesis, and nitrogen remobilisation. It is linked to leaf nitrogen content, plant dry weight, root dry weight, seed yield, fruit colour, lycopene content, and the stay-green trait. Additional associations include salt and cold stress response, reactive oxygen species homeostasis, and traits like canopy temperature, net photosynthetic rate, and quantum yield. The encoded protein localises to plastids, chloroplast thylakoid membranes, and the chloroplast stroma.
