LTPG1

Gene
LTPG1
Protein
Non-specific lipid transfer protein GPI-anchored 1
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
193 amino acids
Function
Lipid transfer protein that, together with LTPG2, binds to lipids and functions as a component of the cuticular lipid export machinery that performs extensive export of intracellular lipids (e.g. C29 alkane) from epidermal cells to the surface to build the cuticular wax layer and silique walls. Involved in the establishment of resistance to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Alternaria brassicicola.
Similarity
Belongs to the plant LTP family.
