The gene encodes a gamma-glutamyltransferase (AKA gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, EC 2.3.2.2) that is located in vascular tissues (predominantly phloem) of leaves and is involved in the degradation of glutathione. The encoded enzyme also mitigates oxidative stress by metabolizing GSSG (oxidized form of GSH - glutathione) in the apoplast.

The gene encodes a gamma-glutamyltransferase (AKA gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, EC 2.3.2.2) that is located in the apoplast of young siliques (within the ovules of the carpel) and is involved in the degradation of glutathione. The encoded enzyme also acts as part of a GSH pumping gamma-glutamyl cycle in this tissue and may also be involved in gamma-glutamyl amino acid formation.
The gene encodes a gamma-glutamyltransferase (AKA gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, EC 2.3.2.2) that is located in the vacuole and is most active in roots. The encoded enzyme is involved in the initial degradation of glutathione conjugates in this cell compartment. It is also induced by xenobiotics and contributes to xenobiotics metabolism.
HIRA (Arabidopsis homolog of histone chaperone HIRA)
Encodes a nuclear localized WD-repeat containing protein involved in negative regulation of knox gene expression via epigenetic mechanism of chromatin re-organization. Interacts physically and genetically with AS1. Expressed in meristem and leaf primordia. Homozygous mutants are embryo lethal. Phenotype of cosuppressed lines is variable but show effects on leaf development similar to as1/as2.
