Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb115970
• Gene Symbol: ZmMs33 ZmGPAT6 ZmGPAT4 Group 7
• Gene Name: male sterile33
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• A maize genic male-sterility (GMS) mutant (ms33-6038) with a loss-of-function of the ZmMs33 gene encoding glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 6 (GPAT6) displayed severe deficiencies in the development of a four-layer anther wall and microspores and excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in anthers.
• ZmMs33 gene is preferentially expressed at anther stages S5 and S6, and it encodes a glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) enzyme that catalyzes the first step of glycerophospholipid biosynthesis.
• ZmMs33 gene encoding glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 6 (GPAT6) displayed severe deficiencies in the development of a four-layer anther wall and microspores and excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in anthers.
