M2 — Nicotiana attenuata

Summary

A4A49_20509 (NaM2) on coyote tobacco (Nicotiana attenuata) scaffold00893 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase with peroxidase activity, salicylic acid binding, and L-serine O-acetyltransferase activity. It is associated with nicotine metabolism, cysteine anabolism, the MEP pathway, and responses to chlorate and sulfate starvation. The gene is linked to traits including variegated leaf, starch grain synthesis, leaf length, respiration rate, temperature stress response, zinc sensitivity, phototropism, sucrose content, herbicide sensitivity, jasmonic acid content, photosynthetic rate, and chloroplast development. It has been connected to heat stress tolerance, pathogen defense, disease resistance, auxin transport, gravitropism, lateral root development, and embryo patterning. Related genes in other species link the family to water stress tolerance, cold stress response, hydrotropism, phototropism, and embryo axis polarity.
