additional information | lacs9 null mutant do not show any detectable phenotype. Disruption of LACS8 in the lacs8 mutant and lacs8 lacs9 double mutant, and over-expression of LACS8, do not affect the seed fatty acid content | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | isozyme LACS9 is the major LACS isoform involved in plastidial fatty acid export for triacylglycerol formation. Isozymes LACS1 and LACS9 have overlapping functions in triacylglycerol biosynthesis. LACS1 is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum and is involved in cuticular lipid synthesis | Arabidopsis thaliana |
