Protein
Long chain base biosynthesis protein 2a
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). The heterodimer formed with LCB1 constitutes the catalytic core. Involved in the regulation of the programmed cell death (PCD) signaling pathway. Plays an important role during male gametogenesis and embryogenesis.
Similarity
Belongs to the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
