ATPD — Glycine max

Summary

GmATPD (GLYMA_10G213400V4) on soybean chromosome 10 encodes a protein with an ATP synthase F0 subunit d domain, possessing proton-transporting ATP synthase activity, rotational mechanism, along with copper, zinc, and protein binding capabilities. The gene is associated with proton motive force-driven ATP synthesis, nitrogen fixation, nodulation, auxin and brassinosteroid signaling, leaf vascular tissue pattern formation, osmotic response, and secretion. It is linked to traits including potassium content, brassinosteroid sensitivity, osmotic stress tolerance, lateral root development, abnormal leaf venation, and reduced root length. The protein localizes to the F1-F0 complex, thylakoid, chloroplast thylakoid membrane, mitochondria, cytosol, and plant-type vacuole. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to cytoplasmic male sterility, high temperature stress response, and photochemical quenching.
