General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.14.20.4 malfunction two inactive alleles are reported: a mutant anthocyanidin synthase allele containing a 4-bp insertion at the end of exon1 is identified from yellow bulbs of the F2 population in which the DFR-A (dihydroflavonol 4-reductase) genotype is homozygous for an active allele. The 4-bp insertion causes a frame-shift mutation and results in creation of a premature stop codon at the start of exon2. This mutant anthocyanidin synthase allele is designated ANSPS allele. RT-PCR results show that transcripts of the ANSPS allele are almost undetectable in yellow F2 bulbs, implying the involvement of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Another inactive anthocyanidin synthase allele is identified from the light-red F1 populations showing complementation between DFR-A (dihydroflavonol 4-reductase) and anthocyanidin synthase genes. A critical amino acid change of the strictly conserved serine residue into leucine is found in this mutant allele designated ANSS188L Allium cepa
