HL — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsHL (CSA18G025690) in Camelina sativa encodes an inositol monophosphatase-like protein with 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleotidase activity (EC 3.1.3.7) and metal binding capability. The gene is associated with inositol phosphate metabolism, sulfate assimilation, PIP biosynthesis, and seedling development, and its product localises to the cytoplasm. CsHL is associated with seed weight, seed size, seedling hypocotyl length, and proline accumulation. Related genes in other species link the family to abiotic stress tolerance, sulfur metabolism, salt sensitivity, and salt tolerance, and sequence similarity further associates the family with drought tolerance, abscisic acid sensitivity, heterosis, and proline content.
