RAD — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsRL4 (CSA28725S010, symbol RAD) encodes a RADIALIS-like protein with a SANT/Myb and homeodomain-like superfamily domain, and has DNA binding transcription factor activity. It is associated with flower development, determination of dorsoventral asymmetry, and DNA-dependent transcription, and is localized to both the nucleus and cytosol. The gene is linked to drought tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species connect the RADIALIS-like family to similar developmental and stress-response processes.
