ACCD — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT2G111000 (symbol ACCD, preferred name PsACCD) on garden pea chromosome 2LG1 encodes a protein with acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity and carboxyl- or carbamoyltransferase activity that binds zinc and ATP. The product localises to the chloroplast inner membrane and stroma as part of the ACCase complex and is associated with malonyl-CoA and fatty acid anabolism. This gene has been associated with pollen fertility, stomatal resistance, chlorophyll content and salt tolerance.
