P5CS — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_7G063070 (P5CS) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) on chromosome 7 encodes a protein with glutamate 5-kinase and glutamylphosphate reductase activities, and is associated with the regulation of proline anabolism, L-proline biosynthetic process, glutamate and proline metabolism, as well as polyamine anabolism, spermine breakdown, hydrogen peroxide biosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, embryogenesis, osmotic response, cell cycle, and defense response. It is linked to traits including proline content, photosynthetic rate, stomatal resistance, and salt tolerance (SALTTL). The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm. Related genes in other species connect the family to net photosynthetic rate.
