TLP2 — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CaTLP2 (LOC101493576) on chickpea chromosome 7 encodes a protein with a Tubby_C domain and an F-box domain, and is annotated with transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. The gene is associated with response to fungi, osmotic response, and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Its product localises to the plastid, cytosol, plasmalemma and nucleus. CaTLP2 is associated with seed coat mucilage homogalacturonan biosynthesis and seed mucilage production. Related genes in other species are linked to salt, drought and oxidative stress tolerance, stomatal response to abscisic acid, and immune responses.
