Zeaxanthin epoxidase, chloroplastic (ZEP) Recombinant Protein | ZEP recombinant protein
Recombinant Arabidopsis thaliana Zeaxanthin epoxidase, chloroplastic (ZEP) , partial
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Encodes a single copy zeaxanthin epoxidase gene that functions in first step of the biosynthesis of the abiotic stress hormone abscisic acid (ABA). Mutants in this gene are unable to express female sterility in response to beta-aminobutyric acid, as wild type plants do.
Uniprot Description
Zeaxanthin epoxidase that plays an important role in the xanthophyll cycle and abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis. Converts zeaxanthin into antheraxanthin and subsequently violaxanthin. Required for resistance to osmotic and drought stresses, ABA-dependent stomatal closure, seed development and dormancy, modulation of defense gene expression and disease resistance and non-photochemical quencing (NPQ). Through its role in ABA biosynthesis, regulates the expression of stress-responsive genes such as RD29A during osmotic stress and is required for normal plant growth during vegetative development. Is required for late skotomorphogenic growth through its role in the xanthophyll carotenoids neoxanthin, violaxanthin and antheraxanthin biosynthesis. Required for beta-aminobutyric acid (BABA)-induced priming in disease resistance, tolerance to salt and drought stresses and sterility. Participates in NPQ by regulating the level of zeaxanthin in photosynthetic energy conversion. NPQ is a process that maintains the balance between dissipation and utilization of light energy to minimize the generation of oxidizing molecules and the molecular damages they can generate.

Product Notes
The ZEP zep (Catalog #AAA1405320) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli or Yeast or Baculovirus or Mammalian Cell and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Zeaxanthin epoxidase, chloroplastic (ZEP), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
