physiological function | in T-DNA insertion mutant, mucilage release is both patchy and slow and seeds display delayed germination. Developmental analysis of mutant seeds reveals no change in mucilage secretory cell morphology, but changes in monosaccharide quantities are detected. Chemical and immunological analyses of mucilage extracted from bxl1 mutant seeds and antibody staining of developing seed coats reveal an increase in (1-5)-linked arabinans, suggesting that BXL1 is acting as an a-L-arabinofuranosidase in the seed coat | Arabidopsis thaliana |
