Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q9C9U3-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q9C9U3-2; Sequence=VSP_044438; Note=Derived from EST data. No experimental confirmation available.;
Developmental StageAccumulates progressively during senescence induced by detachment of leaves. In flowers, expressed in anthers and ovules prior to fertilization, and in siliques, present in developing seeds. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19759339}.
FunctionAlpha-dioxygenase that catalyzes the primary oxygenation of fatty acids into oxylipins. May be involved in the senescence process. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19759339}.
SimilarityBelongs to the peroxidase family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00298}.
Tissue SpecificityExpressed in seedlings (cotyledons, young leaves, and hypocotyls), flowers, siliques and old leaves. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17369372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19759339}.
