AFB1 — Zea mays
Summary
ZM00001EB193850 (ZmAFB1) on maize chromosome 4 encodes a protein with auxin receptor activity, auxin binding, NEDD8 transferase activity, and multiple transporter activities including auxin influx and efflux, ABC-type indole, and cadmium ion transmembrane transport. The protein contains an F-box domain and leucine-rich repeats, localizes to the SCF ubiquitin ligase complex and nuclear SCF complex, and is associated with auxin signalling, ubiquitination and degradation of AUX/IAA, seed development, and regulation of seed size. ZmAFB1 is linked to traits including seedling cotyledon size, adventitious root number, phototropism, herbicide sensitivity, seed yield, biomass yield, root hair length, flower development, and pollen fertility restoration. Related genes in other species are associated with auxin response, lateral root formation, and inflorescence architecture.
