DB identifier | AT3G14990 | Secondary Identifier | locus:2086295 |
Name | DJ-1 homolog A | Brief Description | Class I glutamine amidotransferase-like superfamily protein |
TAIR Computational Description | Class I glutamine amidotransferase-like superfamily protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a homolog of animal DJ-1 superfamily protein. In the A. thaliana genome, three genes encoding close homologs of human DJ-1 were identified AT3G14990 (DJ1A), AT1G53280 (DJ1B) and AT4G34020 (DJ1C). Among the three homologs, DJ1C is essential for chloroplast development and viability. It exhibits glyoxalase activity towards glyoxal and methylglyoxal. The mRNA is cell-to-cell mobile. |
