CYP — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_1G011980 (symbol CYP) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) on chromosome 1 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) with a cyclophilin-like domain, possessing cis-trans proline isomerase activity, cyclosporin A binding, RNA folding chaperone, identical protein binding, mRNA binding, zinc binding, and protein binding activities. The gene is associated with protein folding, regulation of protein refolding, RNA splicing, mRNA splicing via the spliceosome, cold acclimation, response to cold, response to salt, activation of salinity response, response to abscisic acid, response to mannitol, electron transfer, triterpenoid anabolism, polar cell growth, and shoot development. It localizes to the nucleus, cytosol, cytoplasm, chloroplast stroma, mitochondria, plasmalemma, nuclear speck, and ICG. Associations include leaf necrosis, leaf length, cell elongation, low temperature and oxidative stress responses, salt tolerance, freezing tolerance, drought tolerance, cell expansion, endoreplication, organ growth, impaired vacuolar transport, and reduced seed coat mucilage. Related genes in other species are linked to drought and salt stress tolerance.
