CLA — Camelina sativa
Summary
CsCLA (CSA02G017710) in Camelina sativa encodes a protein with DXP-synthase activity (EC 2.2.1.7) and transketolase domains, placing it in the 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase family. The gene is associated with the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway, thiamine and pyridoxal phosphate biosynthesis, and regulation of isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis. It has been linked to chloroplast and plastid development, photosynthetic rate, seed yield, and responses to high temperature and abiotic stress. Associations also include shoot system growth, embryo development, disease tolerance, and carbon starvation response. The encoded protein localises to chloroplast nucleoids, peroxisomal lumen, and the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to chloroplast differentiation, carotenoid biosynthesis, photosynthesis rate, and albino phenotypes when disrupted.
