LPP2 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsLPP2 (CSA14G018220) encodes a protein with phosphatidate phosphatase and acid phosphatase activities, belonging to the PAP2/HPO superfamily. This Camelina sativa gene is associated with phospholipid dephosphorylation, phospholipid metabolism, and ABA signaling, and its product localizes to the membrane and cytoplasm. CsLPP2 is associated with photosynthetic rate, stomatal resistance, seed size, seed dormancy, flowering time, and seed yield, as well as with energy output, growth rate, ATP and sugar content, carbon metabolism, and protein import into chloroplasts. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to ABA signaling, ABA sensitivity during germination, seed germination, bolting time, biomass, disease susceptibility, photosynthesis rate, tuber morphology, and tuber development.
