TAIR Computational Description | serine transhydroxymethyltransferase 1;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a protein with mitochondrial serine hydroxymethyltransferase activity, which functions in the photorespiratory pathway, catalyzes the conversion of serine and tetrahydrofolate to glycine and 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate. Involved in controlling cell damage caused by abiotic stress, such as high light and salt and the hypersensitive defense response of plants. |
