RAB — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT0S2044G0080 (PsRAB) encodes a C2H2-type zinc-finger transcription factor with a plant development regulator domain, localised to the nucleus. It is associated with the regulation of meristem organisation, DNA-templated transcription, intracellular and vesicle transport, protein breakdown, flavonoid anabolism, and responses to ethylene and cold. The gene has been linked to protein content, as well as phenotypes including cytokinesis, cell geometry, floral organogenesis, organ separation, hypocotyl growth, cellulose biosynthesis, and endoplasmic reticulum trafficking. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to petal size, petal morphology, floral organ development, organ identity, salt response, hypocotyl morphology, cellulose content, directional cell growth, and vesicular transport.
