MAP — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsMAP (PSAT4G070200) on chromosome 4LG4 encodes a phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein belonging to the Atg8-like and ubiquitin-like domain superfamily. The gene is associated with autophagy, mitophagy, and cellular response to nitrogen starvation, as well as cell cycle processes including S phase, mitosis, and cell cycle modulation. It is linked to protein transport, nuclear import, signal transduction, response to stress, response to ethylene, defence response to fungi, and regulation of growth. The encoded product localises to cytoplasmic vesicles, microtubules, and the tonoplast. Related genes in other species are linked to germination ratio.
