ENP — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LsENP, encoded by the gene LSAT_V11C400188370 on chromosome 4 of garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa), belongs to the NPH3/RPT2-like protein family and contains BTB/POZ and NPH3 domains. The gene is associated with protein ubiquitination and the biological process GO:0015979. It has been linked to leaf angle. Related genes in other species, such as CPT1, share sequence similarity with LsENP, though this relationship is not yet established in lettuce.
