Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: GhPK6
  • Gene Name: pyruvate kinase6
  • Genome: TM1_NBI
  • Species: Gossypium hirsutum

Functional Descriptions:

  • Cotton cytosolic pyruvate kinase GhPK6 participates in fast fiber elongation regulation in a ROS-mediated manner.
  • Cotton cytosolic pyruvate kinase GhPK6 is preferentially expressed in the late stage of fiber elongation process, transgenic experiments indicated that its expression level was negatively correlated to cell expansion rate.
  • RT-qPCR and western blot analyses revealed that the expression of GhPK6 was negatively correlated with fiber elongation rate, which well explains the observed sharp increase of cytosolic PK activity at the end of fast fiber elongation process.
  • These data collectively suggested that GhPK6 might play an important role in regulating cotton fiber elongation in a ROS-dependent inhibition manner.
