RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype: Columbia)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis
Also known as: allene oxide cyclase 2
Summary: Encodes allene oxide cyclase. One of four genes in Arabidopsis that encode this enzyme, which catalyzes an essential step in jasmonic acid biosynthesis. Gene expression is induced during senescence, a process that involves jasmonic acid signalling pathway. Note: Nomenclature for Arabidopsis allene oxide cyclase 2 (AOC2, AT3G25770) gene is based on Stenzel et al. 2003 Plant Molecular Biology 51:895-911. AOC2 (AT3G25770) is also referred to as AOC3 in He et al. 2002 Plant Physiology, 128:876-884.
