I9H — Asparagus officinalis

Summary

A4U43_C01F4560, designated AoI9H, encodes a protein with Glyco_trans_43 and Nucleotide-diphossugar_trans domains, and annotated galactosylgalactosylxylosylprotein 3-beta-glucuronosyltransferase and xylosyltransferase activities. The gene is associated with glucuronoxylan and xylan anabolism, secondary cell wall biogenesis, cell wall organization, and pollen exine formation. Its product localizes to the Golgi membrane and Golgi complex. AoI9H is linked to xylan biosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism pathways. In asparagus, AoI9H has been observed in relation to glucuronoxylan biosynthesis.
