UniProt Comments
Involved in auxin biosynthesis. Converts the indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) produced by the TAA family to indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Unable to use tryptamine (TAM) as substrate. Required for the formation of floral organs and vascular tissues. Belongs to the set of redundant YUCCA genes probably responsible for auxin biosynthesis in shoots.
