Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Csa_4G003090
• Gene Symbol: CsMYB60
• Gene Name: Transcription factor MYB60
• Genome: Cucumis sativus ASM407v2
• Species: Cucumis sativus

Functional Descriptions:

• CsMYB60 directly and indirectly activates structural genes to promote the biosynthesis of flavonols and proanthocyanidins in cucumber.
• CsMYB60 activated CsFLS and CsLAR by binding to their promoters and directly or indirectly promoted the expression of CsbHLH42, CsMYC1, CsWD40, and CsTATA-box binding protein, resulting in the formation of complexes of these four proteins to increase the expression of Cs4CL and interact with CsTATA-box binding protein to regulate the expression of CsCHS, thereby regulating the biosynthesis of flavonols and PAs in cucumber.
• Overexpression of CsMYB60 increases the accumulation of flavonols and PAs in different tissues, especially in spines.
• CsMYB60 is the B gene that controls the biosynthesis of flavonols and PAs in cucumber.
• CsMYB60 is a key regulator of flavonols and proanthocyanidans that determine the colour of fruit spines in cucumber.
