alpha/beta-Hydrolases superfamily protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a galactolipase. Located in the chloroplast. Involved in the initial step of jasmonic acid biosynthesis. Expressed in vegetative tissues and is necessary for the biosynthesis of basal-level JAs in vegetative tissues.

UniProt Comments
Sn-1-specific phospholipase that releases free fatty acids from phosphatidylcholine. Has a higher galactolipase activity than phospholipase A1 activity when digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) is used as substrate. Catalyzes the initial step of jasmonic acid biosynthesis. Required for the biosynthesis of basal-level endogenous jasmonate in vegetative tissues. Regulates leaves growth. Not essential for jasmonate biosynthesis after wounding or upon pathogen infection.
