Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=O81006-1; Sequence=Displayed; Note=Derived from EST data. No experimental confirmation available.; Name=2; IsoId=O81006-2; Sequence=VSP_055334; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
FunctionFatty acid desaturase involved in the production of chloroplast-specific phosphatidylglycerol molecular species. Catalyzes the formation of a trans double bond introduced close to the carboxyl group of palmitic acid, which is specifically esterified to the sn-2 glyceryl carbon of phosphatidylglycerol (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayLipid metabolism; fatty acid metabolism.
SimilarityBelongs to the fatty acid desaturase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPlastid, chloroplast membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
