NSF — Cucumis melo

Summary

MELO3C024461.2 (CmNSF) encodes an AAA-ATPase of the CDC48 family, with annotated AMP deaminase, [pyruvate kinase]-phosphatase, proteasomal ATPase, and ubiquitin ligase substrate adaptor activities, and is associated with SNARE and polyubiquitin-dependent protein binding. In melon, the gene is linked to protein complex disassembly, mitotic spindle breakdown, protein dislocation from the ER, membrane fusion, Golgi organization, and protein secretion. It is associated with organ and meristem growth, pollen maturation, microsporogenesis, female gamete generation, and responses to freezing and misfolded proteins. Associations with agronomic traits include plant male sterility, pollen fertility restoration, seed longevity, leaf shattering, viral disease response, herbicide sensitivity, nitrate uptake, stem elongation, flowering time, and disease tolerance. The protein localizes to the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex, nuclear envelope, cell plate, spindle, and mitochondrial outer membrane.
