CYP — Sorghum bicolor

Summary

SORBI_3007G216700 (CYP) in sorghum chromosome 7 encodes a cyclophilin-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (EC 5.2.1.8) with cis-trans proline isomerase activity and cyclosporin A binding capacity. The gene is associated with protein folding, regulation of protein refolding, activation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis, secondary metabolism, responses to abscisic acid, salt, and mannitol, and activation of the salinity response. The product localises to the chloroplast stroma, cytosol, cytoplasm, nucleus, and plasmalemma. Related genes in other species link the family to grass weed traits.
