Gene Details:

• Gene ID: AT2G40190
• Gene Symbol: LEW3
• Gene Name: LEAF WILTING 3
• Description: UDP-Glycosyltransferase superfamily protein;(source:Araport11)
• TAIR Accession:
• Genome: Araport11_genome_release
• Species: Arabidopsis thaliana

Transcripts:

• AT2G40190.1

Germplasm Phenotype:

• lew3  — leaf-wilting; when grown at 21-22C, mutant plants are smaller, have shorter siliques and are less fertile than the wild-type plants. Growth phenotype is partially rescued at higher temperatures (25-26C); collapsed xylem with reduced cellulose content; more sensitive to osmotic stress and ABA.

Literature:

• LEW3, encoding a putative alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase (ALG11) in N-linked glycoprotein, plays vital roles in cell-wall biosynthesis and the abiotic stress response in Arabidopsis thaliana.   DOI:  10.1111/j.1365-313X.2009.04013.x ;  PMID:  19732381
