GT7 — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

PGSC0003DMG400017508 (GT7, also known as SGT2) on potato chromosome 8 encodes a UDP-glycosyltransferase with multiple annotated transferase activities, including nuatigenin 3-beta-glucosyltransferase, scopoletin glucosyltransferase, flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase, and abscisic acid glucosyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with secondary metabolism, saponin and triterpenoid biosynthesis, phytoalexin biosynthesis, flavonol biosynthesis, and the mevalonate pathway. It has been linked to pigmentation, chlorophyll biosynthesis, immune response, and response to insects. Annotated associations include reactive oxygen species accumulation, hypersensitive response, disease resistance, pathogen resistance, and steroidal alkaloid glycosylation. Related genes in other species are linked to bacterial disease response and flavonoid content, and to resistance against Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato.
