HSP70 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsHSP70-8 (CSA07G010590) on Camelina sativa chromosome 7 encodes a heat shock protein 70 family member with ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, heat shock protein binding, and protein folding chaperone functions. It is associated with protein folding and refolding, the ERAD pathway, ER unfolded protein response, MAPK cascade, signal transduction, and responses to stress, heat, salt, and virus. The protein localizes to the ER lumen and chaperone complex, chloroplast membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and axonemal central pair projection. Related genes in other species link the family to similar stress-responsive processes.
