DB identifier | AT5G26570 | Secondary Identifier | locus:2151089 |
Name | PHOSPHOGLUCAN WATER DIKINASE | Brief Description | chloroplastidic phosphoglucan, water dikinase (ATGWD3) |
TAIR Computational Description | chloroplastidic phosphoglucan, water dikinase (ATGWD3);(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | chloroplastidic phosphoglucan, water dikinase (PWD) which is required for normal degradation of leaf starch in Arabidopsis. NMR analysis of the mutants, suggests that the gene is specifically involved in the phosphorylation of the glucosyl residues of starch at the C3 position. |
