Name | thalianol synthase 1 | Brief Description | thalianol synthase 1 |
TAIR Computational Description | thalianol synthase 1;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes an oxidosqualene cyclase involved in the biosynthesis of thalianol, a tricyclic triterpenoid of unknown function. Overexpression of THAS leads to dwarfing in the aerial tissues of Arabidopsis plants, but increases their root length. THAS is part of a small operon-like cluster of genes (with At5g48000 (THAH) and At5g47990 (THAD)) involved in thalianol metabolism. |
