CRR1 — Brassica napus

Summary

BnCRR1 (DARMORV10_C03P18520.1) on chromosome C03 of oilseed rape encodes a protein with dihydrodipicolinate reductase activity, containing DapB_C, DHDPR_bac, DapB_N and NAD(P)-bd_dom_sf domains, and is also associated with protein binding. The gene is linked to chloroplast stroma localisation and has been associated with photosynthesis light reaction, NADH dehydrogenase complex (plastoquinone) assembly, programmed cell death, cell death, innate immunity, signal transduction, regulation of cellular process, cell physiology, hormone anabolism, cytokinin anabolism, and the related gene CRR41. Associations include chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase-like complex assembly. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to chloroplast NAD(P)H dehydrogenase activity and complex accumulation, as well as photochemical quenching.
