NCBI Protein Information
Raffinose synthase family protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a protein which might be involved in the formation of verbascose. A T-DNA insertion mutant was shown to have a decreased amount of verbascose (as well as mannitol) whereas the levels of raffinose and stachyose remained unchanged.
