General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
2.3.1.199 malfunction complete loss of KCS1 expression results in decreases of up to 80% in the levels of C26 to C30 wax alcohols and aldehydes, while smaller effects are observed on the major wax components, i.e. the C29 alkanes and C29 ketones on leaves, stems and siliques. The loss of KCS1 expression does not result in complete loss of any individual wax component or significantly decrease the total wax load Arabidopsis thaliana
2.3.1.199 physiological function the enzyme plays a role in wax biosynthesis and is involved in both, the decarbonylation and acyl-reduction wax synthesis pathways Arabidopsis thaliana
