ACP — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT4G002920 (symbol ACP, also known as PsACP or PsMTACP3) on garden pea chromosome 4LG4 encodes a protein belonging to the acyl carrier protein (ACP)-like superfamily with a phosphopantetheine-binding domain and annotated acyl carrier activity. The gene is associated with fatty acid and lipoate anabolism, leaf development, and mitochondrial localisation. It has been linked to embryo development. Studies of related genes in other species connect the ACP family to seed weight, stearic acid content, palmitic acid content, oleic acid content, starch content, and embryo development traits, as well as to various climate-related phenotypes.
