CYP — Cucumis melo

Summary

MELO3C011236.2, also known as CmCYP95, encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (EC 5.2.1.8) with cyclosporin A binding, RNA folding chaperone, identical protein binding, mRNA binding, zinc binding, and protein binding activities. This melon gene on chromosome 4 is associated with protein folding, regulation of protein refolding, RNA splicing via the spliceosome, cold acclimation, response to salt, activation of salinity response, response to abscisic acid, response to mannitol, and polar cell growth. It is linked to leaf length, cell elongation, low temperature and oxidative stress responses, salt tolerance, drought tolerance, freezing tolerance, cell expansion, endoreplication, organ growth, and impaired vacuolar transport. The protein localizes to the nucleus, cytoplasm, cytosol, chloroplast stroma, mitochondria, and plasmalemma. Related genes in other species are linked to ABA-mediated stress responses and G2 progression.
