Also known as
DL3385W; EARLY LIGHT-INDUCIBLE PROTEIN 2; FCAALL.232
Summary
Encodes an early light-induced protein. ELIPs are thought not to be directly involved in the synthesis and assembly of specific photosynthetic complexes, but rather affect the biogenesis of all chlorophyll-binding complexes. A study (PMID 17553115) has shown that the chlorophyll synthesis pathway was downregulated as a result of constitutive ELIP2 expression, leading to decreased chlorophyll availability for the assembly of pigment-binding proteins for photosynthesis.

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Expression of the ELIP1 and ELIP2 genes in seeds is regulated by different phytochromes, as expression of ELIP1 is deregulated only under red light whereas ELIP2 is strongly reduced under far-red light.
    Title: Inactivation of the ELIP1 and ELIP2 genes affects Arabidopsis seed germination.
  2. Elip2 works as a chlorophyll sensor that modulates chlorophyll synthesis to prevent accumulation of free chlorophyll, and hence prevent photooxidative stress.
    Title: The light stress-induced protein ELIP2 is a regulator of chlorophyll synthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.
  3. Elip2 expression is differentially regulated in response to light or chilling stress with mechanisms active either at transcriptional and post-transcriptional level.
    Title: Mutational and expression analysis of ELIP1 and ELIP2 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
  4. Null mutations within the ELIP2 gene do not modify sensitivity to photoinhibition, photooxidation, or the ability to recover from light stress.
    Title: Suppression of both ELIP1 and ELIP2 in Arabidopsis does not affect tolerance to photoinhibition and photooxidative stress.
  5. we propose that the discrepancy between amounts of Elip transcripts and proteins in light stress-preadapted or senescent leaves is related to a presence of photoprotective anthocyanins or to lower chlorophyll availability, respectively
