HSP70 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsHSP70B (CSA14G020170) encodes a member of the Hsp70 family of molecular chaperones, possessing ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, protein binding, and heat shock protein binding activities, and is annotated as a protein folding chaperone. In Camelina sativa, this gene is associated with the unfolded protein response, ERAD pathway, MAPK cascade, protein refolding, vesicle transport, cytosol-to-ER transport, mitotic cell cycle, signal transduction, and responses to heat, salt, stress, and virus. It is linked to reproductive growth time, cell cycle traits, root development traits, root thickness, abiotic stress tolerance, heat tolerance, plant development, seed germination under abiotic stress, and cell division. The encoded protein localizes to the ER lumen and membrane, chloroplast membranes, perinuclear membrane, and the ER chaperone complex. Related genes in other species are linked to root growth and responses to salt and high temperature stress.
