CYP — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_4G111720 (symbol CYP) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) on chromosome 4 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) with a cyclophilin-like domain, possessing cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding. The gene is associated with protein folding, protein proline isomerization, 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 localizes to the chloroplast stroma, mitochondria, cytosol, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and nucleus. The gene is linked to leaf necrosis. Related genes in other species connect the family to photochemical quenching.
