Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionCarrier of the growing fatty acid chain in fatty acid biosynthesis.
InductionBy sucrose in the dark. Down-regulated by starvation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11788768}.
Ptm4'-phosphopantetheine is transferred from CoA to a specific serine of apo-ACP by acpS. This modification is essential for activity because fatty acids are bound in thioester linkage to the sulfhydryl of the prosthetic group (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Sequence CautionSequence=CAB63798.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityContains 1 acyl carrier domain. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPlastid, chloroplast.
