CYP — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA19G035520, designated CYP, encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) in Camelina sativa chromosome 19. The protein possesses cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding capacity. The gene is associated with protein folding and regulation of protein refolding, as well as detoxification. It is associated with responses to salt, mannitol, and abscisic acid, and with activation of the salinity response. The product localises to the cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to the enzyme class EC 5.2.1.8 (peptidylprolyl isomerase).
