Target Background
Function
This antibody targets an enzyme that mediates the synthesis of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) ranging from 22 to 26 carbons in length (e.g., C22, C24, C26). It plays a role in elongating C20 fatty acid suberin precursors. Functionally, it is redundant with KCS20 in the two-carbon elongation of C22 fatty acids, a process essential for cuticular wax and root suberin biosynthesis.
Gene References Into Functions
- DAISY, the gene encoding this antibody's target, is transcriptionally activated by NaCl application, as well as by polyethylene glycol-induced drought stress and wounding. It is involved in suberin biosynthesis. PMID: 18786002
