LEA — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD6AV1G207530 (TtLEA) encodes a dehydrin protein, also known as dehydrin 7, belonging to the dehydrin conserved domain family. The gene is associated with phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidate, phosphoinositide, and general lipid binding. It has been linked to cold acclimation, response to salt, response to abscisic acid, response to thirst, NO storage, embryogenesis, and seed development. The protein localizes to the vesicle membrane and cytosol. Additionally, TtLEA is associated with salinity tolerance, germination rate, and seed germination. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to similar stress and developmental processes.
