ATP8 — Brassica oleracea

Summary

BoATP8, encoded by the gene BOLC102_C05P013190.1_BOLC102_V1 on cabbage chromosome 5, is a YMF19-like protein that binds ATP and is associated with ATP anabolism and proton transmembrane transport. The gene product localises to the F1-F0 complex and mitochondrial membrane. BoATP8 is associated with anther development, cell death, and programmed cell death. It is also associated with cytoplasmic male sterility. Related genes in other species link the YMF19-like family to the enzyme class 7.1.2.2, which catalyses proton-transporting ATP synthase activity.
