ID 86411
Name APL2 (GENE SYMBOL)
Synonyms (6)
GRAMENE GENEGR:0101320
Type Gene
Species Oryza sativa (Oryza sativa) [ GR_tax:013681 ]
Germplasm
Description This gene encodes for the large subunit of enzyme ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase
(AGP). The enzyme regulates starch biosynthesis and catalyzes the reaction ATP +
alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate = diphosphate + ADP-glucose. The APL2 peptide is
localized to the endosperm cell cytosol. It forms spatiotemporal heterotetramer
ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase enzyme complex together with small subunits. The
APL2 dimer interacts with APS2b form of the APS2 (GR:0101318) dimers to form the
heterotetramer enzyme complex in developing endosperm cell cytosol.
