ADH — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

StADH (PGSC0003DMG400014870) on potato chromosome 3 encodes a protein with ADH_Zn_CS, ADH-like_N, ADH-like_C, GroES-like_sf, NAD(P)-bd_dom_sf, and ER domains, annotated with perillyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, 8-hydroxygeraniol dehydrogenase, and S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione dehydrogenase activities. The gene is associated with fermentation, response to ethanol, methanal catabolism, propanoate metabolism, carbohydrate utilization and storage, protein storage, entry into dormancy, downregulation of photosynthesis, fatty acid elongation, secondary growth, gluconeogenesis, pentose-phosphate shunt, glycan biosynthesis, demethylation, indole alkaloid metabolism, and quorum sensing. It is linked to starch content, protein content, and potassium concentration. The product localizes to the cytosol and nucleus. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to fructose, glucose, and lignin content.
