Gene
At5g40420
Protein
Oleosin 21.2 kDa
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
199 amino acids
Function
May have a structural role to stabilize the lipid body during desiccation of the seed by preventing coalescence of the oil. Probably interacts with both lipid and phospholipid moieties of lipid bodies. May also provide recognition signals for specific lipase anchorage in lipolysis during seedling growth (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the oleosin family.
