HSP70 — Oryza sativa Indica Group

Summary

BGIOSGA008908 (symbol HSP70, also known as OiHSP70 or OiHSP70-17) on chromosome 2 of Indica rice encodes an ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone with ATP hydrolase activity and heat shock protein binding capacity, belonging to the Hsp70 family. The gene is associated with protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum, the ERAD pathway, the unfolded protein response, auxin transport and signaling, pollen tube growth, and stress responses. It has been linked to heat tolerance, spikelet fertility, grain yield per plant, spikelet number, plant height, leaf size, photosynthetic rate, and root length. The encoded protein localizes to the ER lumen, ER chaperone complex, tonoplast, Golgi complex, and secretory vesicles. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to drought tolerance, chlorophyll content, grain shape, and water use efficiency.
