FEATURES

FAMILY

class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as 1A12_ARATH, ACS2, ACC1. 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) enzymes catalyze the conversion of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) into 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC), a direct precursor of ethylene. Homodimer and heterodimer. In vivo, the relevance of heterodimerization with other ACS enzymes is however unsure (By similarity). Interacts with GRF3.
