Description |
tocopherol cyclase, chloroplast / vitamin E deficient 1 (VTE1) / sucrose export defective 1 (SXD1) |
| Gene Summary |
Tocopherol cyclase involved in tocopherol (vitamin E)synthesis. VTE1 over-expressing plants have increased tocopherol indicating VTE1 is a major limiting factor in tocopherol synthesis. Mutants defective in this gene accumulate high amounts of zeaxanthin in conditions of high light or low temperature. Plays a role in the adaptation to low temperature stress, notably phloem loading. |
