K217A the TAA1 mutant shows a defect in pyridoxal 5'-phosphate binding Arabidopsis thaliana
additional information phenotypes of multiple mutant combinations, strong ethylene defects of the wei8 tar2 roots and the typical ethylene-triggered differential growth of apical hooks is also blocked in wei8 tar2, wei8 tar2 mutants have reduced levels of auxin Arabidopsis thaliana

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution TAA1 encodes a member of a small family of aminotransferases with strong sequence similarity to C-S Lyases Arabidopsis thaliana
malfunction the ethylene defects of wei8 are dramatically enhanced in the wei8 tar2 double mutants that display a nearly complete lack of response to ACC in roots Arabidopsis thaliana
metabolism gene wei8 encodes a long-anticipated tryptophan aminotransferase, TAA1, in the essential indole-3-pyruvic acid branch of the auxin biosynthetic pathway, a link between local auxin production, tissue-specific ethylene effects, and organ development exists. TAA1 and TAR2 have overlapping roles in the ethylene response, overview Arabidopsis thaliana
physiological function gene wei8 encodes a long-anticipated tryptophan aminotransferase, TAA1, in the essential indole-3-pyruvic acid branch of the auxin biosynthetic pathway, a link between local auxin production, tissue-specific ethylene effects, and organ development exists. The IPA route of auxin production is key to generating robust auxin gradients in response to environmental and developmental cues. Proper gynoecium development requires TAA1 and TAR2 function Arabidopsis thaliana
