KC1 — Solanum tuberosum

Summary

PGSC0003DMG400023769 (KC1, also known as SKT3) on potato chromosome 1 encodes a protein with domains including KHA_dom, KAT/AKT, ion transport, cNMP-binding and ankyrin repeats, and is annotated with outward rectifier potassium channel activity, potassium channel activity, and ion transporter activity. The gene is associated with regulation of membrane potential, monoatomic ion homeostasis, regulation of K+ transport, upregulation of stomatal opening, downregulation of cellular defense response, response to basic pH, wound healing, hypotonic salinity response, and many other biological processes. It is linked to traits including leaf necrosis tolerance, alkali soil sensitivity, magnesium sensitivity, potassium sensitivity, water stress response, nitrogen sensitivity, cadmium concentration, inflorescence development, wheat powdery mildew disease response, iron concentration, aluminum response, leaf chlorosis, sucrose content, leaf number, gibberellic acid sensitivity, yield, insect damage response, cotyledon morphology, vegetative growth time, root hair length, lateral root length, transpiration rate, light intensity response, days to flowering, root mass density, water use efficiency, ethylene sensitivity, jasmonic acid content, plant stress response, photosynthetic rate, and many more. Additional associations include potassium translocation, stomatal regulation, programmed cell death, osmotic pressure regulation, reactive oxygen species response, mineral nutrient partitioning, potassium distribution, reduced shoot K+ content, reduced K+ uptake, potassium secretion into
