UniProt Comments
Serine protease. Has a substrate preference for the hydrophobic residues Phe and Ala and the basic residue Asp in the P1 position, and for Asp, Leu or Ala in the P1' position (PubMed:12413398). Essential for mucilage release from seed coats. Triggers the accumulation and/or activation of cell wall modifying enzymes necessary either for the loosening of the outer primary cell wall, or to facilitate swelling of the mucilage (PubMed:18266922).
