Gene Details:

• Gene ID: A4A49_33371
• Suggest Gene Name: CRYPTOCHROME 1
• Description: putative flowering gene
• Species: Nicotiana attenuata
• Source: Putative flowering gene from PlantCFG

Protein Features:

• Pfam:  PF12546    PF00875    PF03441

Functional Descriptions:

• Encodes CRY1, a flavin-type blue-light photoreceptor with ATP binding and autophosphorylation activity. Functions in perception of blue / green ratio of light. The photoreceptor may be involved in electron transport. Mutant phenotype displays a blue light-dependent inhibition of hypocotyl elongation. Photoreceptor activity requires light-induced homodimerisation of the N-terminal CNT1 domains of CRY1. Involved in blue-light induced stomatal opening. The C-terminal domain of the protein undergoes a light dependent conformational change. Also involved in response to circadian rhythm. Mutants exhibit long hypocotyl under blue light and are out of phase in their response to circadian rhythm. CRY1 is present in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Different subcellular pools of CRY1 have different functions during photomorphogenesis of Arabidopsis seedlings.;Encodes cryptochrome, the blue/UV‐A light photoreceptor
