CRD — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsCRD (CSA03G005060) on Camelina sativa chromosome 3 encodes a cupin-domain seed storage protein of the 11S globulin family, with nutrient reservoir activity and binding capacities for IgG, IgE, proteins and metals. The gene is associated with seed maturation, cotyledon development, seed development, and protein homotrimerization and hexamerization. Its product localises to the rough endoplasmic reticulum, vacuole, extracellular space and extraorganismal space. CsCRD is associated with seed protein content and protein content. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to grain yield per plant, seed weight, seed viability and plant height.
