High impact information on GCS1

 

Biological context of GCS1

  • Putative beta-subunits for the glucosidase II holoenzyme identified in the Arabidopsis and rice genomes share characteristic motifs (including an HDEL ER-retention signal) with beta-subunits in mammals and yeast [3].
  • Most features of the rsw3 phenotype are shared with other cellulose-deficient mutants, but some--notably, production of multiple rosettes and a lack of secreted seed mucilage--are not and may reflect glucosidase II affecting processes other than cellulose synthesis [3].
