CRR1 — Brassica napus

Summary

BnCRR1 (DARMORV10_A03P15850.1) on chromosome A03 of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) encodes a protein with dihydrodipicolinate reductase activity and protein binding capability, containing DapB_C, DHDPR_bac, DapB_N, and NAD(P)-bd_dom_sf domains. The gene is associated with chloroplast stroma localization and linked to NADH dehydrogenase complex (plastoquinone) assembly, photosynthesis light reactions, cell death, programmed cell death, innate immunity, signal transduction, and regulation of cellular processes. It is also associated with cytokinin and hormone anabolism, as well as cell physiology. Related genes in other species link the family to chloroplast NAD(P)H dehydrogenase activity and complex accumulation. The gene is also associated with photochemical quenching traits and the related gene CRR41, which is involved in chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase-like complex assembly.
