HL — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

StHL (PGSC0003DMG400022370) on potato chromosome 2 encodes an inositol monophosphatase-like protein with 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase activity (EC 3.1.3.7) and metal binding capability. The gene is associated with inositol phosphate metabolism, sulfate assimilation, systemic acquired resistance, and quorum sensing, and its product localises to the cytoplasm. StHL is associated with salt tolerance, drought tolerance, proline accumulation, and stem mechanical properties. Related genes in other species link the family to sulfur metabolism, abiotic stress tolerance, rosette growth, and trichome morphology.
