General annotation (Comments)

Function

Acts in the modification of cell walls via demethylesterification of cell wall pectin By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Pectin + n H2O = n methanol + pectate.

Pathway

Glycan metabolism; pectin degradation; 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate from pectin: step 1/5.

Subcellular location

Secretedcell wall By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in siliques. Ref.3

Developmental stage

Expressed throughout silique development. Ref.3

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the pectinesterase family.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAB71446.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction.
