LP1 — Pisum sativum

Summary

PsLP1 (PSAT7G226840) on garden pea chromosome 7LG7 encodes a non-specific lipid-transfer protein belonging to the Plant_nsLTP family. The product exhibits lipid carrier activity, lipid binding, calmodulin binding, calcium ion binding, and protein binding. It is associated with phospholipid transfer to membranes, cutin-based cuticle development, lipid transport, programmed cell death, plant epidermal cell differentiation, and responses to abscisic acid, salinity, and mechanical stimulus. The protein localises to the apoplast, plant-type cell wall, plasmodesmata, secretory vesicles, chloroplast thylakoid, Golgi complex, and plastid. LP1 is linked to traits including flowering time, seed growth and development, leaf senescence, ethylene sensitivity, jasmonic acid content, stomatal closure, and abscisic acid sensitivity. Phenotypic associations include salt tolerance, drought tolerance, seedling growth, hypocotyl elongation, cuticle permeability, disease resistance, freezing tolerance, and pollen tube growth.
