BIP4 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA11G033100, symbol BIP4 and also known as CsHSP70, encodes a member of the Hsp70 family of chaperones. The product possesses ATP hydrolase and ATP-binding activities, functions as a protein-folding chaperone, and exhibits heat shock protein binding. In Camelina sativa, this gene is associated with the unfolded protein response in the endoplasmic reticulum, the ERAD pathway, and protein refolding. It is linked to responses to heat, salt, and viral stress, as well as to pollen development, germination, and tube growth. The protein localises to the ER lumen, ER chaperone complex, secretory vesicles, and also to chloroplast membranes and the tonoplast. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to seed weight, germination rate, chlorophyll content, and proline content.
