LMP009673

Record overview

LMPD IDLMP009673
Gene ID825516
SpeciesArabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis)
Gene NameMPBQ/MSBQ methyltransferase
Gene SymbolAPG1
SynonymsALBINO OR PALE GREEN MUTANT 1; APG1; E37; IEP37; INNER ENVELOPE PROTEIN 37; VITAMIN E DEFECTIVE 3; VTE3
Alternate namesMPBQ/MSBQ methyltransferase
Chromosome3
EC Number2.1.1.295
SummaryEncodes a MPBQ/MSBQ methyltransferase located in the chloroplast inner envelope membrane. Mutant plants lack plastoquinone (PQ), suggesting that the APG1 protein is involved in the methylation step of PQ biosynthesis. The gene product is also involved in tocopherol (vitamin E) biosynthesis.
