ARF — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT2G168160 (symbol ARF) on chromosome 2LG1 encodes an ADP-ribosylation factor, a small GTPase of the Arf1-5-like family with GTP binding, GTPase activity, G protein activity, phospholipase activator activity, and metal binding. It is associated with auxin transport, intracellular protein transport, vesicle transport, and protein transport, and localises to the Golgi complex and cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to auxin content, lateral root length, root length, and salt tolerance (SALTTL).
