SHD — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD0UV1G065770 (symbol SHD, also known as TtSHD) in durum wheat is annotated with ATP-dependent protein folding chaperone activity and Hsp90 binding activity, and with multiple additional molecular functions including CDP-glycerol diphosphatase, pectate lyase, and SAM-dependent methyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with chloroplast and thylakoid membrane organization, protein secretion, vesicle organization, and fatty acid beta-oxidation. It localizes to the chloroplast inner membrane, thylakoid, and nucleoid, as well as the ER lumen and Tic complex. SHD is linked to grain weight, seed set percent, seed viability, flowering time, maturity time, pollen fertility, and responses to high temperature, bacterial disease, insect damage, and abiotic stress. Related genes in other species are linked to thermotolerance, disease resistance, thylakoid membrane homeostasis, and plastid function.
