Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Solyc03g097340
• Gene Symbol: SlAN11
• Gene Name: TRANSPARENT TESTA GLABRA 1
• Genome: Tomato Genome version SL4.0
• Species: Solanum lycopersicum

Functional Descriptions:

• Tomato SlAN11 regulates flavonoid biosynthesis and seed dormancy by interaction with bHLH proteins but not with MYB proteins.
• SlAN11 gene could affect seed dormancy by regulating the expressions of abscisic acid (ABA) signaling-related genes SlABI3 and SlABI5, and the sensitivity to ABA treatment in seed germination is conversely changed by SlAN11-overexpressed or -downregulated lines.
• SlAN11 was characterized as an effective transcription regulator to promote plant anthocyanin and seed proanthocyanidin (PA) contents, with late flavonoid biosynthetic genes activated in 35S::SlAN11 transgenic lines, while the dihydroflavonol flow to the accumulation of flavonols or their glycosylated derivatives was reduced by repressing the expression of SlFLS in this SlAN11-overexpressed lines.
• These results suggest that the tomato WD40 protein SlAN11, coordinating with bHLH and MYB proteins, plays a crucial role in the fine adjustment of the flavonoid biosynthesis and seed dormancy in tomato.
