PC1 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsPC1 (PC1) on chromosome 2LG1 of garden pea encodes a centrin/CML-like protein with EF-hand domains and calcium ion binding activity, and is annotated as an enzyme modulator. It is associated with NO storage and localises to the cytoplasm, endomembrane system, mitochondria, and other organelles. The gene has been linked to seed thickness, seed weight, starch content, protein content, and flower colour. Phenotypic associations include decreased heat and salt tolerance alongside increased osmotic stress tolerance. Related genes in other species include CML29 and AT5G17480.1.
