NCBI Protein Information
xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase 18
NCBI Summary
Encodes a xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase with only only the endotransglucosylase (XET; EC 2.4.1.207) activity towards xyloglucan and non-detectable endohydrolytic (XEH; EC 3.2.1.151) activity. Expressed in the mature or basal regions of both the main and lateral roots, but not in the tip of these roots where cell division occurs.

UniProt Comments
Catalyzes xyloglucan endohydrolysis (XEH) and/or endotransglycosylation (XET). Cleaves and religates xyloglucan polymers, an essential constituent of the primary cell wall, and thereby participates in cell wall construction of growing tissues .
