Type Comment Proteins
CER2_ARATH function Involved in biosynthesis of the epicuticular wax. Plays a role in very-long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis and is required for C28 fatty acid elongation in stem. Despite its classification as a BAHD acyltransferase based on sequence homology, CER2 does not seem to share the catalytic mechanism of the members of the BAHD family.
CER2_ARATH similarity Belongs to the plant acyltransferase family.
CER2_ARATH tissue specificity Expressed at high levels in the epidermis of stems and young siliques. Expressed in flowers.
