Please wait a moment until all data is loaded. This message will disappear when all data is loaded.
evolution
AtFAR2 is highly similar in properties and substrate specificity to AtFAR6
malfunction
mutations in specific genes encoding fatty acid reductases (FAR) responsible for fatty alcohol production cause abnormal development of pollen. A disrupted AtFAR2 (MS2) gene in Arabidopsis thaliana results in pollen developing an abnormal exine layer and a reduced fertility phenotype
physiological function
AtFAR2 is a fatty acid reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana that reduces fatty acyl-CoA and -ACP substrates into fatty alcohols, cf. EC 1.2.1.80. Enzyme AtFAR2 is the major enzyme responsible for exine layer functionality, AtFAR6 might provide functional redundancy to AtFAR2
