Comments
Comment typeDescription
BiotechnologyOverexpression of ABCA9 increases seed oil content. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
Developmental StageExpressed during the middle and late stages of seed development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
Disruption PhenotypeReduced seed size with abnormal morphology and reduced triacylglycerol content. Retarded growth on medium lacking sucrose. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
FunctionMediates the transport of acyl-CoAs and/or free fatty acids to the endoplasmic reticulum. Has no effect on the selectivity of fatty acid incorporation into triacylglycerol or further desaturation steps. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
Sequence CautionSequence=AED97510.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCA family. CPR flippase (TC 3.A.1.211) subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 ABC transporter domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00434}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in siliques. Detected in seedlings, rosette leaves, stems and flowers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23269834}.
