RAD — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA03G001360, designated RAD and also known as CsGEN1, encodes a protein with flap endonuclease and 5'-3' exonuclease activities, containing XPG/Rad2 and PIN-like domains. In Camelina sativa, this gene is associated with DNA repair, Okazaki initiator RNA removal, cell cycle G2/M phase transition, and telomere maintenance. It is linked to guard mother cell differentiation, positive regulation of stomatal complex development, lateral root formation, and pollen development. The protein localizes to the nucleus, nucleolus, and mitochondria. Associations with drought tolerance and cell cycle traits have been noted, along with links to endoreduplication, ploidy level, and stomatal development. Related genes in other species link the family to cell differentiation.
