DIR2

Gene
DIR2
Protein
Dirigent protein 2
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
185 amino acids
Function
Dirigent proteins impart stereoselectivity on the phenoxy radical-coupling reaction, yielding optically active lignans from two molecules of coniferyl alcohol in the biosynthesis of lignans, flavonolignans, and alkaloids and thus plays a central role in plant secondary metabolism.
Similarity
Belongs to the plant dirigent protein family.
