LTPG2 — Solanum tuberosum
Summary
StLTPG2 (PGSC0003DMG400032249) on potato chromosome 9 encodes a protein with a bifunctional inhibitor/LTP/seed storage superfamily domain and lipid-binding molecular function. The gene is associated with lipid transport, wax anabolism, stomatal closure, cold acclimation, and hormone metabolism, as well as processes including RNA replication, sporulation, protein metabolism, and detoxification. It is linked to the plasmalemma and side of membrane. Associations with plant dry weight, transpiration rate, chlorophyll content, and plant height have been noted. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to drought tolerance.
