DHDPS — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsDHDPS (CSA16G004020) encodes a dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS) with enzyme activity EC 4.3.3.7, belonging to the DapA-like and aldolase_TIM domain families. This plastidic enzyme (GO:0009507) is associated with lysine biosynthesis pathways (GO:0019877, GO:0009089) and amino acid metabolism in Camelina sativa. The gene has been connected to gametophyte development, and its family members are linked to photochemical quenching and tissue-specific expression through studies of related genes in other species.
