BOLC102_C01P037220.1_BOLC102_V1 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BOLC102_C01P037220.1_BOLC102_V1 on cabbage (Brassica oleracea) chromosome 1 encodes a ribosomal L2 family protein with a Ribosomal_uL2_RNA-binding domain and an OB-fold nucleic-acid-binding domain. The product possesses transferase activity, structural constituent of ribosome activity, and RNA binding, and is localised to the mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit and mitochondria. It is associated with mitochondrial translation, translation, and anther development. The gene has also been linked to cytoplasmic male sterility and heterosis. Studies of related genes in other species, based on sequence similarity, connect the family to ribosomal function and mitochondrial processes, though these associations are not yet established in cabbage.
