DB identifier | AT5G27380 | Secondary Identifier | locus:2146395 |
Name | glutathione synthetase 2 | Brief Description | glutathione synthetase 2 |
TAIR Computational Description | glutathione synthetase 2;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a protein with similarity to glutathione synthetases, which catalyzes one of the early steps in glutathione biosynthesis. Two transcripts have been detected; the longer transcript is less abundant and the protein is localized to the chloroplast. The smaller transcript, in which the transit peptide is truncated, is localized to the cytosol. Increased glutathione accumulation in response to cesium stress. |
