Gene Details:

  • Gene ID: orange1.1g047100m
  • Gene Symbol: CitERF71
  • Gene Name: AP2/ERF transcription factor 71
  • Genome:
  • Species: Citrus sinensis

Functional Descriptions:

  • Among cloned members of the AP2/ERF transcription factor gene family, CitERF71 showed a similar expression pattern to CitTPS16.
  • CitERF71 was able to activate the CitTPS16 promoter based on results from transient dual-luciferase assays and yeast one-hybrid assays.
  • The transcription factor CitERF71 directly binds to ACCCGCC and GGCGGG motifs in the CitTPS16 promoter, activates the promoter, and therefore probably has a function in transcriptionally regulating E-geraniol production in Newhall sweet orange fruit.
  • These results indicate an important role for CitERF71 in transcriptional regulation of CitTP16 and, therefore, in controlling production of E-geraniol in Citrus fruit.
