NSP2 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsNSP2 (PSAT5G133360) on chromosome 5LG3 encodes a GRAS family transcription factor with sequence-specific DNA binding, protein homodimerization activity, and DNA binding transcription factor activity. It is localized to the nucleus, nuclear membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, and cytoplasm. This gene is associated with nodulation, arbuscular mycorrhizae formation, response to symbiotic fungi, phosphate ion detection, ethylene anabolism, geotropism, bundle sheath cell fate specification, radial pattern formation, asymmetric cell division, leaf development, defense response, and regulation of transcription. It is also linked to nutrient response and signal transduction. Related genes in other species are linked to plant height, leaf size, and petiole length traits.
