Envelope-localized, alpha/beta hydrolase (ABH) involved in tocopherol synthesis specifically in seeds of Arabidopsis but potentially other tissues in other species.
Hydrolase involved in tocopherol (vitamin E) biosynthesis (PubMed:35639691). Releases prenyl alcohols from chlorophyll biosynthetic intermediates, which are then converted to the corresponding diphosphates for tocopherol biosynthesis (PubMed:35639691). Provides most of the phytol from chlorophyll for tocopherol biosynthesis in seeds (PubMed:35639691).
