CYP — Lactuca sativa

Summary

LSAT_V11C900458380, designated CYP, on garden lettuce chromosome 9 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidylprolyl isomerase with cis-trans proline isomerase activity, cyclosporin A binding, identical protein binding, mRNA binding, and protein binding. The gene is associated with sesquiterpenoid metabolism, lactone anabolism, regulation of protein refolding, sporopollenin biosynthesis, response to mannitol, RNA splicing, protein folding, response to salt, activation of salinity response, and response to abscisic acid. It localises to the chloroplast stroma, cytosol, nucleus, nuclear speck, and plasmalemma. Associations include heterosis, cell elongation, cell size, endoreplication, cell expansion, organ growth, oxidative stress response, and impaired vacuolar transport with reduced seed coat mucilage. Related genes in other species are linked to resistance to Phytophthora infestans.
