CIARC_P032 — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CIARC_P032 (symbol PETA, also known as CaPETA) on chickpea chromosome NC_011163.1 encodes a protein with cytochrome f domains (Cyt_f_TM, Cyt_f_lg_dom, Cyt_f_lg_dom_sf, Cyt_f, Rudment_hybrid_motif). The product localises to the chloroplast thylakoid membrane and exhibits electron transfer activity, heme binding, and iron binding. It is associated with the biological process GO:0015979. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to chloroplast thylakoid membrane function and photosystem I assembly, though these associations are not yet established in chickpea itself.
