BAM1 — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

PGSC0003DMG400012129, designated StBAM1 on potato chromosome 8, encodes a beta-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) belonging to the glycosyl hydrolase 14 family. The enzyme exhibits beta-amylase activity and identical protein binding. StBAM1 is associated with starch, sucrose, and polysaccharide breakdown, as well as starch anabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, ABA signaling, and regeneration. It has been connected to reducing sugar, sucrose, starch, and sugar content. Studies of related genes in other species link the BAM1 family to glucose content, fruit shape and size, pollen fertility, and drought tolerance.
