CYP — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_3G463900 (CYP) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) on chromosome 3 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) with cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding capability. The gene is associated with protein folding, regulation of protein refolding, electron transfer, triterpenoid anabolism, shoot development, and responses to abscisic acid, salt, and mannitol, including activation of the salinity response. Its product localises to the chloroplast stroma, cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. The gene is linked to leaf necrosis. Sequence similarity places it within the cyclophilin-type PPIase family (EC 5.2.1.8).
