Description |
ascorbate peroxidase 2 |
| Gene Summary |
Encodes a cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase APX2. Ascorbate peroxidases are enzymes that scavenge hydrogen peroxide in plant cells. Eight types of APX have been described for Arabidopsis: three cytosolic (APX1, APX2, APX6), two chloroplastic types (stromal sAPX, thylakoid tAPX), and three microsomal (APX3, APX4, APX5) isoforms. |
