SKP1 — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_7G021400 (SKP1) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) encodes a SKP1-like protein containing a Skp1 component dimerisation domain and a POZ domain, with molecular function in cullin family protein binding. The gene is associated with SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein breakdown, protein ubiquitination, cell cycle, cell division, cell motility, secretion, and homeostasis. It has been linked to jasmonic acid (JA) signalling, leaf development, flower development, and organ growth, as well as leaf size. The encoded protein localises to both the cytoplasm and nucleus.
