GAPC — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT5G052720 (GAPC, PsGAPC) on garden pea chromosome 5LG3 encodes a protein with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+ and NADP) activities, plus fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, phospholipase D, histone acetyltransferase, and salicylic acid-binding activities. It is associated with glycolytic, gluconeogenic, pentose-phosphate, and oxidative phosphorylation pathways, cellular respiration, redox and anoxia responses, phosphatidic acid metabolism, and RdDM. Localisation evidence links it to the plasma membrane, mitochondria, chloroplast envelope, vacuole, apoplast, cell wall, and microtubule cytoskeleton. The gene is associated with grain yield, drought and salt tolerance, freezing tolerance, stem and leaf senescence, photoperiod sensitivity, root morphology, stomatal closure, seed oil accumulation, and disease tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to biomass, drought resistance, leaf senescence, actin organisation, and basal immunity; in maize to grain yield and thermotolerance; and in tomato to disease resistance and chilling tolerance.
