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 flowers, siliques, floral stems and rosettes leaves. Ref.4 Ref.6

Developmental stage

Expressed throughout silique development. Ref.6

Miscellaneous

The PMEI region may act as an autoinhibitory domain and prevent untimely PME activity during transport.

Sequence similarities

In the N-terminal section; belongs to the PMEI family.

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the pectinesterase family.
