CHS — Solanum lycopersicum

Summary

SOLYC05G053170.3 (CHS) on tomato chromosome 5 encodes a chalcone/stilbene synthase family protein with polyketide synthase type-III domains, annotated with naringenin-chalcone synthase, phloroisovalerophenone synthase, tetraketide alpha-pyrone synthase, chalcone isomerase, flavanone 4-reductase, dihydroflavanol 4-reductase, flavonol synthase, acyltransferase, SUMO transferase and kinase binding activities. The gene is associated with chalcone, polyketide, melanin, beta-carotene and carotene anabolism, cytokinin breakdown, chlorophyll anabolism upregulation, pigment accumulation, phototransduction, sporulation, viral life cycle, and responses to UV-A, flavonoids and gravity. It localises to the cytosol, nucleus, ER, tonoplast and is extrinsic to the ER membrane. Associations include fruit firmness, color, lycopene, neoxanthin, anthocyanin and chlorophyll content, flower color, leaf thickness, root length, stomatal opening and resistance, net photosynthetic rate, photochemical quenching, respiration rate, flowering time, UV light sensitivity, oxidative and salt stress responses, pollen exine development, male sterility, cuticle properties, parthenocarpic fruit development, root-knot nematode resistance, and genome stability.
