CLA — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsCLA (PSAT4G218120) on chromosome 4LG4 of garden pea encodes a protein with a Dxylulose-5-P_synthase domain and DXP-synthase activity. The gene is associated with the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway, regulation of isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis, and malonyl-CoA breakdown. It has been linked to seed width, seed protein content, seed yield, photosynthetic rate, chloroplast development, and responses to high temperature stress and disease tolerance. Associations also include shoot system growth, plastid development, embryo development, and abiotic stress response. The gene product localises to chloroplast envelope, chloroplast nucleoid, peroxisomal lumen, and mitochondrial lumen. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to chloroplast differentiation, isoprenoid biosynthesis, carotenoid content, and photosynthesis rate.
