CYP — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA19G035510, designated CYP, encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) with cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding capacity. In Camelina sativa on chromosome 19, this gene is associated with protein folding, regulation of protein refolding, and detoxification. It is linked to responses to abscisic acid, salt, and mannitol, as well as activation of salinity response. The product localises to the chloroplast stroma, cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to the enzyme class EC 5.2.1.8, a peptidyl-prolyl isomerase.
