CYP — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA15G041690, designated CYP, encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) with cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding capability. In Camelina sativa, this gene is associated with protein folding and regulation of protein refolding, as well as responses to abiotic stresses including salt, mannitol, and abscisic acid, alongside detoxification and activation of salinity response. The protein localises to multiple cellular compartments: chloroplast stroma, cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. Related genes in other species link the cyclophilin family to peptidyl-prolyl isomerase activity (EC 5.2.1.8).
