Disease resistance-responsive (dirigent-like protein) family protein
TAIR Computational Description
Disease resistance-responsive (dirigent-like protein) family protein;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary
Member of the dirigent protein family. Dirigent proteins function in stereoselective radical-radical coupling in lignan biosynthesis and other phenylpropanoid components.
TAIR Short Description
Disease resistance-responsive (dirigent-like protein) family protein
Dirigent proteins impart stereoselectivity on the phenoxy radical-coupling reaction, yielding optically active lignans from two molecules of coniferyl alcohol in the biosynthesis of lignans, flavonolignans, and alkaloids and thus plays a central role in plant secondary metabolism.
