| AT1G07890 | Encodes a cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase APX1. Ascorbate peroxidases are enzymes that scavenge hydrogen peroxide in plant cells. Eight types of APX have been described for Arabidopsis: three cytosolic (APX1, APX2, APX6), two chloroplastic types (stromal sAPX, thylakoid tAPX), and three microsomal (APX3, APX4, APX5) isoforms. At least part of the induction of heat shock proteins during light stress in Arabidopsis is mediated by H2O2 that is scavenged by APX1. Expression of the gene is downregulated in the presence of paraquat, an inducer of photoxidative stress. ascorbate peroxidase 1 (APX1); FUNCTIONS IN: L-ascorbate peroxidase activity; INVOLVED IN: in 6 processes; LOCATED IN: cytosol, cell wall, chloroplast, plasma membrane; EXPRESSED IN: 27 plant structures; EXPRESSED DURING: 16 growth stages; CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Haem peroxidase (InterPro:IPR010255), Plant ascorbate peroxidase (InterPro:IPR002207), Peroxidases heam-ligand binding site (InterPro:IPR019793), Peroxidase, active site (InterPro:IPR019794), Haem peroxidase, plant/fungal/bacterial (InterPro:IPR002016); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: ascorbate peroxidase 2 (TAIR:AT3G09640.2); Has 35333 Blast hits to 34131 proteins in 2444 species: Archae - 798; Bacteria - 22429; Metazoa - 974; Fungi - 991; Plants - 531; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 9610 (source: NCBI BLink). ascorbate peroxidase 1 | 1 | + | View |
