XTH22

Gene
XTH22
Protein
Xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase protein 22
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
284 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes xyloglucan endohydrolysis (XEH) and/or endotransglycosylation (XET). Cleaves and religates xyloglucan polymers, an essential constituent of the primary cell wall, and thereby participates in cell wall construction of growing tissues. Its induction in case of mechanical stress, suggests that it may contribute in the adaptive changes in morphogenesis by being recruited to alter tissues tensil strength, or flexibility, enabling adaptation to mechanically stressful environments.
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 16 family. XTH group 2 subfamily.
Mass
32.093 kDa
