NCBI Summary
putative xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase, expressed primarily in the stele of mature non-elongating regions of both the main and the lateral root. Is expressed in lateral root primordia but expression ceases after lateral root begins to grow. Involved in cell proliferation in incised inflorescence stems.

UniProt Comments
Catalyzes xyloglucan endohydrolysis (XEH) . Cleaves and religates xyloglucan polymers, an essential constituent of the primary cell wall, and thereby participates in cell wall construction of growing tissues (PubMed:23585673). Involved in cell proliferation in the tissue reunion process of wounded inflorescence stems. Maybe a downstream target of NAC071 as a consequence of auxin action in wounded stems (PubMed:25182467).
