TN2 — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CaTN2 (LOC101499873) on chickpea chromosome 5 encodes a protein with domains including NB-ARC, TIR, and leucine-rich repeats, and is associated with ATP hydrolase, NADP nucleosidase, and DNA-binding transcription factor activities. The gene is associated with defense responses, including systemic acquired resistance via salicylic acid signaling, defense against Gram-negative bacteria, callose deposition, and positive regulation of the hypersensitive response. It is linked to responses to UV, singlet oxygen, ozone, hypoxia, insects, and viruses, as well as regulation of stomatal closure, hydrogen peroxide metabolism, and programmed cell death. Associations with agronomic traits include disease tolerance, biomass yield, seed yield, water use efficiency, anthocyanin content, low temperature and oxidative stress responses, root thickness, and leaf chlorosis. The protein localizes to membranes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, mitochondria, and vesicles.
