HSP70 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT0S2061G0040 (HSP70) in garden pea encodes a member of the heat shock protein 70 family, characterized by an ATPase nucleotide-binding domain and a peptide-binding domain, with ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, heat shock protein binding, and protein folding chaperone functions. This gene is associated with a wide range of biological processes including protein folding and refolding, mitochondrial protein import and biogenesis, endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response, ERAD pathway, S-nitrosylation and S-transnitrosylation, DNA replication, cell development, embryogenesis, seed maturation, response to virus, and response to stress. It is linked to localization in the cytoplasm, nucleus, membrane, chloroplast membrane, ER lumen and chaperone complex, and axonemal central pair projection.
