Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityPhosphatidyl-L-serine = phosphatidylethanolamine + CO(2).
CofactorName=pyruvoyl group; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:45360; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
Disruption PhenotypeNo visible phenotype under normal growth conditions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17449644}.
FunctionCatalyzes the biosynthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) from phosphatidylserine. Contributes only to a minor proportion of PE production. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17449644}.
PathwayPhospholipid metabolism; phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis; phosphatidylethanolamine from CDP-diacylglycerol: step 2/2.
Sequence CautionSequence=ABO26298.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAA97369.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 2 EF-hand domains. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00448}.
Subcellular LocationVacuole membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:17449644}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:17449644}. Note=Tonoplast.
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in flowers and at lower levels in leaves. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17449644}.
