SLP — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsSLP (PSAT7G144320) on garden pea chromosome 7LG7 encodes the RuBisCO large subunit-binding protein subunit alpha, chloroplastic, a chaperonin of the Cpn60/GroEL family with ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone activity and ATPase, protein kinase, and mRNA binding functions. The gene is associated with stomatal complex formation and patterning, guard mother cell differentiation, asymmetric and symmetric cell division, cytokinesis by cell plate formation, regulation of meiotic nuclear division, regulation of cell cycle G1/S phase transition, DNA re-duplication, protein import and targeting, protein stabilization and refolding, and response to light intensity. It localizes to the chloroplast envelope, thylakoid, stromule, preprophase band, cortical microtubule, cytosolic ribosome, mitochondrial lumen, stress granule, and apoplast. Associations include cell growth and development, seed maturation, embryo development, root and shoot morphology, leaf composition, trichome development, organ identity, high temperature stress response, thermotolerance, disease resistance, salt stress response, and fertility.
