Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
YFP-KCR1 and CFP-KCR2 fusion constructs transiently expressed in tobacco under the control of the 35S promoter or in Arabidopsis. KCR1 and KCR2 expressed in the yeast ybr159DELTA mutant Arabidopsis thaliana

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
RNAi suppresses KCR activity, which results in a reduction of cuticular wax load and affects very-long-chain fatty acid composition of sphingolipids, seed triacylglycerols, and root glycerolipids. RNAi-suppressed Arabidopsis KCR1 plants display fused vegetative and reproductive organs, an abnormal root morphology and have abnormal trichome and epidermal cell morphology Arabidopsis thaliana

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction loss of KCR1 function results in embryo lethality, which cannot be rescued by KCR2 expression using the KCR1 promoter. Disruption of the KCR2 gene has no obvious phenotypic effect Arabidopsis thaliana
physiological function only KCR1 is a functional KCR isoform involved in microsomal fatty acid elongation Arabidopsis thaliana
