General annotation (Comments)

Function

Lignin degradation and detoxification of lignin-derived products By similarity. Required for secondary xylem cell wall lignification. Ref.4

Catalytic activity

4 benzenediol + O2 = 4 benzosemiquinone + 2 H2O.

Cofactor

Binds 4 copper ions per monomer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Secreted › extracellular space › apoplast Potential.

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitous, with higher levels in the inflorescence stem. Ref.5 Ref.6

Developmental stage

Transcript levels diminished during rosette leaves development. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the multicopper oxidase family.

Contains 3 plastocyanin-like domains.
