Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityA very-long-chain acyl-CoA + malonyl-CoA = CoA + a very-long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoA + CO(2).
FunctionContributes to cuticular wax and suberin biosynthesis (By similarity). Regulates negatively the stomatal development in elevated CO(2) conditions. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11130071}.
InductionRepressed by herbicides such as flufenacet and benfuresate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12916765}.
PathwayLipid metabolism; fatty acid biosynthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the chalcone/stilbene synthases family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 FAE (fatty acid elongase) domain. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
