GAPC — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsGAPC (PSAT2G071480) on garden pea chromosome 2LG1 encodes a glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) with NAD(P)-binding and catalytic domains, annotated with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+ and NADP) activity, plus fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, phospholipase D, histone acetyltransferase, and voltage-gated anion channel activities. It is associated with glycolytic, gluconeogenic, pentose-phosphate, and respiratory processes, redox and phosphate metabolism, and localizes to the plasma membrane, mitochondria, chloroplast envelope, cell wall, and papilla. The gene is linked to grain yield, photoperiod sensitivity, stem and leaf senescence, root morphology, oxidative and temperature stress responses, drought and salt tolerance, stomatal closure, auxin sensitivity, and disease tolerance. Studies of related genes in other species connect the GAPC family to biomass, drought resistance, leaf senescence, actin organization, and heat and chilling tolerance.
