Brief Description | Plant stearoyl-acyl-carrier-protein desaturase family protein |
TAIR Computational Description | Plant stearoyl-acyl-carrier-protein desaturase family protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | One of seven acyl acyl carrier proteins. Expressed primarily in developing seeds.Involved in fatty acid metabolism. Redundant Δ9 stearoyl-ACP desaturase gene which together with FAB2 and AAD1 during embryo development provide precursors for the elaboration of embryo cuticle and therefore plays a specific role during the phase of invasive embryo growth through the endosperm. Together with FAB2, AAD5, and AAD6 redundantly participates in oil storage during the maturation phase. |
