BCP1 — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_1G087290 (MtBCP1, also known as MtDDRM2) encodes a protein with a BRCT domain and PHD zinc-finger domains, and is annotated for protein binding. In barrel medic, this gene is associated with DNA damage response and repair, hypersensitivity to mitomycin C in root growth assays, and processes including HDR, secondary metabolism, secretion, cell death, nodulation, and signal transduction. The encoded protein localises to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Related genes in other species are linked to male fertility and sterility, as well as increased sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents such as camptothecin.
