HL — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

StHL (PGSC0003DMG400008568) on potato chromosome 12 encodes an inositol monophosphatase-like protein with 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase activity (EC 3.1.3.7) and metal binding. The gene is associated with inositol phosphate metabolism, sulfate assimilation, systemic acquired resistance, quorum sensing, cell communication, PIP biosynthesis, protein secretion, and protein synthesis. It is linked to drought tolerance, stem mechanical properties, proline accumulation, and pollen-specific expression, as well as the trait SALTTL. The encoded protein localises to the cytoplasm. Related genes in other species are linked to sulfur metabolism, abiotic stress tolerance, rosette growth, and trichome morphology.
