Name | cis -prenyltransferase 5 | Brief Description | Undecaprenyl pyrophosphate synthetase family protein |
TAIR Computational Description | Undecaprenyl pyrophosphate synthetase family protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a novel Z,E-mixed heptaprenyl diphosphate (Z,E-HepPP) synthase, which may be responsible for short-chain betulaprenols. It catalyzes the formation of C 35 short-chain polyisoprenoids in which the optimal allylic substrate was E,E-FPP. It may have a role in response to cold stress in root. |
