TAIR Curator Summary | SS5 is a chloroplast-localized protein that is related to the canonical starch synthases (most closely to SS4), but is catalytically inactive. Arabidopsis ss5 mutants have near-normal total transitory starch contents, but produce fewer and larger starch granules in their chloroplast. SS5 can bind to starch in vitro, and interacts with MRC/PII1 in vivo. |
