Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information activated by free fatty acids in the presence of divalent cations such as Mg2+ following ozone fumigation Arabidopsis thaliana

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information analysis of dgd1 and dgd2 double mutants show that galactolipid:galactolipid galactosyltransferase is different from the genuine digalactosyldiacylglycerol synthases DGD1 and DGD2, because chloroplasts of a double mutant still are capable of oligogalactolipid biosynthesis. Arabidopsis thaliana
additional information analysis of tgd mutants show that the galactosyl residues are all beta1->6-linked. Arabidopsis thaliana

Localization

Localization Comment Organism GeneOntology No. Textmining
additional information sensitivity to thermolysin suggests that the enzyme is located on the outside of the outer envelope of the chloroplast Arabidopsis thaliana

under normal growth conditions, the in vivo activity of the galactolipid:galactolipid galactosyltransferase is not detectable in the wild type, but becomes apparent in the tgd mutant. The enzyme does not provide the bulk of glactoglycerolipids in the chloroplast, but is speculated to play a role during ozone-induced injury or possibly during senescence of leaves when chloroplast membranes are turned over
