NTP9 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsNTP9 (PSAT0S3685G0040) on garden pea chromosome CAADHX020010690.1 encodes a Trf4-like protein with a MTPAP-like central domain and a nucleotidyltransferase superfamily domain. The product is annotated for protein binding and localises to the nucleus. This gene is associated with auxin transport, embryo development ending in seed dormancy, and response to thirst. It has been linked to water use efficiency and drought tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to a polymerase nucleotidyl transferase domain-containing protein.
