Protein
Lipoxygenase 2, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
13S-lipoxygenase that can use linolenic acid as substrates. Plant lipoxygenases may be involved in a number of diverse aspects of plant physiology including growth and development, pest resistance, and senescence or responses to wounding. Catalyzes the hydroperoxidation of lipids containing a cis,cis-1,4-pentadiene structure. Required for the wound-induced synthesis of jasmonic acid (JA) in leaves.
Similarity
Belongs to the lipoxygenase family.
