NCBI Protein Information
limit dextrinase
NCBI Summary
Encodes an enzyme thought to be involved in the hydrolysis of the alpha-1,6 linkages during starch degradation in seed endosperm. However, a knockout mutant of Arabidopsis lacking limit dextrinase has normal rates of starch degradation in the leaf at night, indicating that more than one isoamylases might be involved in this process.
