Protein
Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase protein 8
Organism
Oryza sativa subsp. japonica
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 (By similarity). May promote elongation of three internodes (II, III and IV) and may be involved in cell elongation processes.
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 16 family. XTH group 2 subfamily.
