DB identifier | AT3G11945 | Secondary Identifier | locus:4010713740 |
Name | homogentisate prenyltransferase | Brief Description | homogentisate prenyltransferase |
TAIR Computational Description | homogentisate prenyltransferase;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a protein involved in plastoquinone-9 biosynthesis. The enzyme possesses homogentisate prenyltransferase activity and was shown to use solanesyl diphosphate, farnesyl diphosphate and geranylgeranyldiphosphate as prenyl donors, but not phytyldiphosphate. This gene At3g11945 derives from a split of At3g11950, publications Tian et al (2007) and Sadre et al (2006) refer to this gene as At3g11950. |
