NCBI Protein Information
Undecaprenyl pyrophosphate synthetase family protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a novel Z,E-mixed heptaprenyl diphosphate (Z,E-HepPP) synthase, which may be responsible for short-chain betulaprenols. It catalyzes the formation of C 35 short-chain polyisoprenoids in which the optimal allylic substrate was E,E-FPP. It may have a role in response to cold stress in root.
