PPAR — Camelina sativa

Summary

CSA25627S010 (PPAR) in Camelina sativa encodes a protein with a D-isomer-specific 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase catalytic domain and exhibits (2R)-hydroxyphenylpyruvate reductase, hydroxypyruvate reductase, glyoxylate reductase (NADPH) and NAD-binding activities. The gene is associated with hypersensitivity, immune response and homeostasis, and its product localises to the cytosol. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to hydroxyphenylpyruvate reductase (EC 1.1.1.237) and glyoxylate reductase (EC 1.1.1.110) functions, though these activities are not yet established in Camelina sativa.
