Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activity(9Z)-(13S)-12,13-epoxyoctadeca-9,11,15- trienoate = (15Z)-12-oxophyto-10,15-dienoate.
FunctionInvolved in the production of 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA), a precursor of jasmonic acid.
InductionHigh local and systemic induction by wounding. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12777050}.
MiscellaneousThe four allene oxide cyclase proteins (AOC1, AOC2, AOC3 and AOC4) are encoded by duplicated genes. They are very similar, and most experiments involving antibodies do not discriminate between the different members.
SimilarityBelongs to the allene oxide cyclase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPlastid, chloroplast {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12777050}.
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in fully developed leaves. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12777050}.
