HSP70 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT0S954G0040, symbol HSP70, encodes a heat shock 70 family chaperone with ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, heat shock protein binding, and protein folding chaperone functions. This garden pea gene on chromosome CAADHX020002788.1 is associated with protein folding and refolding, mitochondrial protein import and biogenesis, protein targeting, ERAD pathway, ER unfolded protein response, S-nitrosylation and S-transnitrosylation, DNA replication, cell development, embryogenesis, seed maturation, response to stress, and response to virus. The product localizes to the ER lumen and ER chaperone complex, chloroplast membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and membrane. Studies of related genes in other species link the HSP70 family to 70-kilodalton heat shock protein function.
