HL — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsHL (CSA02G052260) on Camelina sativa chromosome 2 encodes an inositol monophosphatase-like protein with 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase activity (EC 3.1.3.7) and metal binding. The gene is associated with inositol phosphate metabolism, sulfate assimilation, PIP biosynthesis, and seedling development, and its product localises to the cytoplasm. CsHL is linked to seed weight, seed size, seedling hypocotyl length, and proline accumulation. Studies of the Arabidopsis relative AT5G54390 link the family to abiotic stress tolerance, sulfur metabolism, salt sensitivity, and salt tolerance. Additional associations transferred from related genes in other species include proline content, heterosis, salt response, abscisic acid sensitivity, drought tolerance, and rosette growth.
