ICL — Cucumis sativus
Summary
CSA_2G420990 (ICL, also known as ACEA) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus) on chromosome 2 encodes a protein with isocitrate lyase activity (EC 4.1.3.1) and transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase activity, and belongs to the ICL/PEPM protein family. The gene is associated with the glyoxylate cycle, gluconeogenesis, neutral lipid breakdown, acetate metabolism, regulation of photosynthesis, carbon catabolite repression, autophagy, and ROS metabolic process. It has been linked to traits including percent germination, chlorophyll content, sugar content, transpiration rate, respiration rate, auxin sensitivity, seed maturation, and salt tolerance. Localization evidence connects the product to plastids, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to postgerminative growth, lipid utilization, and peroxisomal function.
