ADH — Sorghum bicolor

Summary

SbADH (SORBI_3005G103500) on sorghum chromosome 5 encodes a protein with ADH-like_C, GroES-like_sf, and NAD(P)-bd_dom_sf domains, and has S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (NADH) activity, S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity, aldo-keto reductase (NAD) activity, redox activity, calcium ion binding, protein homodimerization activity, zinc binding, and protein binding. The gene is associated with activation of cellular response to hypoxic stress, response to estradiol, caffeine, flooding, sucrose, hypoxia, hydrogen peroxide, heat acclimation, methanal metabolism and catabolism, cellular respiration, cell wall modification, seed development, homeostasis, programmed cell death, osmotic response, and salinity response. It has been linked to traits including stem thickness, respiration rate, herbicide sensitivity, low temperature stress response, photosynthetic rate, leaf senescence, disease tolerance, plant height, salt tolerance, and drought tolerance, and to phenotypes including submergence tolerance, aldehyde detoxification, waterlogging tolerance, fermentation, dehydration response, herbicide tolerance, hypoxia resistance, allyl alcohol resistance, hypoxia tolerance, hypoxia stress response, cold stress tolerance, salt stress response, clubroot susceptibility, cold stress response, gene expression regulation, hypoxic stress tolerance, lateral root initiation, flooding response, alcohol dehydrogenase activity, aerobic growth, stomatal closure, fertility
