Abstract

A gene of unknown function identified in Gossypium hirsutum , Gohir.A03G0737001.1, was studied using sequence and bioinformatic tools. The encoded protein (referred to here as GhCPP1-A0A1U8HKT6) was predicted to function as a Chaperone-like protein of protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (CPP1), which is involved with initiation of photochemical reactions of chlorophyll biosynthesis. Sequence analysis indicates it is embedded in the chloroplast envelope membrane through four transmembrane regions and contains a J-like domain that is structurally similar to the J domain of DnaJ/Hsp40 "holdase" chaperone proteins.
