RPS15 — Cicer arietinum

Summary

CaRPS15 (LOC101511312) on chickpea chromosome 4 encodes a ribosomal protein of the S19/S15e family, annotated as a structural constituent of the ribosome with ATP hydrolase activity, RNA binding, mRNA binding, and protein binding. It is associated with cytosolic small ribosomal subunit localization, translation, ribosomal small subunit assembly, and response to misfolded protein. The gene is linked to meristem growth and structural organization, root cap development, root morphogenesis, lateral root formation, leaf morphogenesis, phyllome development, inflorescence development, male and female gamete generation, seedling development, and shoot development. It is also connected to proteasomal and ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis pathways, with localization to the proteasome regulatory particle, nucleolus, plant-type vacuole, plasmodesma, and plasmalemma. Associations include zinc sensitivity, herbicide sensitivity, disease tolerance, meristem tissue development, inflorescence morphology, leaf composition, organ identity, and root development traits.
