ENP — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LsENP, encoded by the gene LSAT_V11C300111380 on chromosome 3 of garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa), belongs to the NPH3/RPT2-like protein family and contains an NPH3 domain, a BTB/POZ domain, and a SKP1/BTB/POZ superfamily domain. The gene is associated with protein ubiquitination as a biological process, and it has been linked to leaf angle. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to CPT1, though this specific function is not established in lettuce.
