HSP70 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT3G178680 (HSP70) in garden pea (Pisum sativum) on chromosome 3LG5 encodes a heat shock 70 family protein with ATP hydrolase activity, ATP binding, heat shock protein binding, and protein folding chaperone functions. It is associated with protein folding and refolding, mitochondrial protein import and biogenesis, S-nitrosylation and S-transnitrosylation, the ERAD pathway, ER unfolded protein response, DNA replication, cell development, embryogenesis, seed maturation, and response to stress and virus. The product localizes to the cytoplasm, nucleus, membrane, chloroplast membrane, ER lumen, ER chaperone complex, and axonemal central pair projection. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to 70-kilodalton heat shock protein function.
