alpha-amylase, putative / 1,4-alpha-D-glucan glucanohydrolase, putative, strong similarity to alpha-amylase GI:7532799 from (Malus x domestica);contains Pfam profile PF00128: Alpha amylase, catalytic domain. Predicted to be secreted based on SignalP analysis.
Click gene/probe ID to show a list of genes that are homologous to the gene.
Encodes a plastid-localized α-amylase. Expression is reduced in the SEX4 mutant. Loss of function mutations show normal diurnal pattern of starch accumulation/degradation. Expression follows circadian rhythms.
Encodes the unique largest subunit of nuclear DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II; the ortholog of budding yeast RPB1 and a homolog of the E. coli RNA polymerase beta prime subunit.
Predicted to be secreted protein based on signalP prediction. Involved in starch mobilization. Mutants are defective in alpha-amylase activity. (Note: AMY1 has been found in the literature to be referred to as AMY3, which is not to be confused with AMY3/At1g69830).
Encodes a cellulose synthase isomer. CESA6 mutants have cellulose defect in the primary cell wall. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that CESA6, along with CESA1 and CESA3 are present in the same plasma membrane complex for cellulose biosynthesis. CESA2 and CESA5 are related to CESA6, having partially redundant roles.
Encodes a protein with putative galacturonosyltransferase activity. Mutants defective in this gene displayed a notable reduction in xylose (>50%) in the cell walls from stems and roots and a reduction in cellulose (~25%).
