PIP2 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA06G027890 (CsPIP2) encodes a protein with aquaporin domains and has water channel activity, phospholipase D activity, and kinase activity annotated on this gene. It is associated with membrane transport, including hydrogen peroxide membrane transport and arsenite import, and localizes to the plasma membrane, plasmodesmata, and plant-type vacuole. The gene is linked to response to desiccation, response to brassinosteroid, response to aluminum, and circadian regulation of gene expression, as well as regulation of stomatal closure and abscisic acid signaling. CsPIP2 is associated with photosynthetic rate, root hair length, flowering time, disease tolerance, and cell elongation trait, as well as sodium uptake, cadmium concentration, and phosphorus response. Related genes in other species link the PIP2 family to water transport, stomatal movement, and pathogen resistance.
