SKP1 — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_8G056090 (SKP1) in barrel medic (Medicago truncatula) encodes a SKP1-like protein that binds cullin family proteins. The gene is associated with protein ubiquitination and SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein breakdown, as well as cell cycle, cell division, cell motility, secretion, and homeostasis. It has been linked to jasmonic acid (JA) signaling, leaf development, flower development, and organ growth, along with leaf size as a trait. The encoded protein localizes to both the cytoplasm and nucleus.
