RPS2 — Arabidopsis thaliana

Summary

AT3G03600, also known as RPS2, encodes a putative ribosomal protein S2 and is annotated as a structural constituent of the ribosome with cis-trans proline isomerase activity and protein binding. This gene is associated with translation, regulation of protein phosphorylation, negative regulation of HR, de-etiolation, red/far-red light phototransduction, blue light signaling, response to molecule of bacterial origin, cell growth, morphogenesis, mitotic cell cycle, HR-PCD, cell cycle, pollen germination, cell death, pollen tube growth, DNA repair, programmed cell death, and protein phosphorylation. RPS2 is linked to phytoplasma resistance. It is localized to the mitochondrial ribosomal SSU complex, small ribosomal subunit, extrinsic to plasma membrane, stress granule, apoplast, membrane, cytosol, and plasmalemma. The gene is also associated with turgor pressure, bacterial disease response, plant morphology trait, shoot axis branching, stem elongation, light intensity response, brassinosteroid sensitivity, low temperature stress response, stomatal opening, disease tolerance, and drought tolerance. Related genes in other species link the family to sugar content.
