TaTIL — triticum aestivum

Summary

TRAESCS6A02G231300 (TaTIL) on bread wheat chromosome 6A encodes a lipocalin/cytosolic fatty-acid binding domain-containing protein with retinal binding activity. This gene is associated with cellular chloride and sodium ion homeostasis, upregulation of oxidative stress responses, and responses to paraquat, high light intensity, freezing, hyperosmotic salinity, and cold acclimation. It is also linked to seed maturation, vitamin metabolism, sulfur compound anabolism, and tRNA metabolism. The product localizes to the internal side of the plasma membrane, chloroplast envelope, and cytoplasm. TaTIL is associated with heat stress tolerance and high temperature stress response.
