MYB1 — Solanum lycopersicum

Summary

SlMYB12 (MYB1) on tomato chromosome 12 encodes a protein with a Myb DNA-binding domain and SANT/Myb domain, localised to the nucleus. It is associated with sequence-specific DNA binding, transcription cis-regulatory region binding, DNA binding, and DNA binding transcription factor activity. The gene is associated with regulation of flavonoid anabolism, anthocyanin anabolism, lignin anabolism, carotenoid anabolism, gibberellin biosynthesis, ascorbate biosynthesis, spermidine anabolism, folate biosynthesis, secondary metabolism, pigmentation, leaf development, fruit firmness, fruit color, and fruit weight. It is also associated with chondrogenesis and bone growth. Related genes in other species include MYB12_2, MYB60, MYB30, MYB42, MYB31, MYB1, LTR1, MYB308, and MYB330.
