ACP — Glycine max

Summary

GLYMA_09G248500V4, designated GmACP or GmACP2, encodes an acyl carrier protein (ACP) characterized by a phosphopantetheine attachment site and a PP-binding ACP domain. The gene product exhibits acyl carrier activity, protein serine/threonine kinase activity, and calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase activity, and is associated with protein acylation, fatty acid elongation, lipogenesis, and oxidative phosphorylation from NADH to ubiquinone. GmACP localizes to mitochondria, the respiratory chain complex I, the cytosol, and the plasmalemma. This gene is linked to stearic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid content, as well as starch content, manganese sensitivity, abscisic acid sensitivity, root thickness, stomatal complex closure time, and disease tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to embryo development, plant growth, photorespiration, and protein lipoylation.
