ATPD — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CaATPD (LOC101508341) on chickpea chromosome 4 encodes a protein with an ATP synthase F0 subunit d domain. The gene is annotated with proton-transporting ATP synthase activity, copper binding, microtubule binding, zinc binding, and protein binding. It is associated with proton-motive-force-driven ATP synthesis, leaf vascular tissue pattern formation, osmotic response, auxin signaling, nodulation, response to auxin, and brassinosteroid-mediated signalling. It has been linked to brassinosteroid sensitivity, osmotic stress tolerance, lateral root development, abnormal leaf venation, and reduced root length. The product localises to the F1-F0 complex, thylakoid, chloroplast thylakoid membrane, mitochondria, cytosol, nucleolus, plant-type vacuole, and plasmalemma. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to potassium content, cytoplasmic male sterility, high-temperature stress response, photochemical quenching, and plant growth.
