High impact information on ACO2

Analysis of the predicted amino acid sequences showed that the ACO1 and ACO3 proteins are highly similar (95%) while ACO2 is more divergent (89%) [1].

Associations of ACO2 with chemical compounds

Yeast strains transformed with each of the three cDNAs were able to convert exogenous ACC to ethylene, the ACO1 strain exhibiting the highest activity in vivo and the ACO3 and ACO2 strains reaching 65% and 45% of ACO1 maximum activity, respectively [1].
