UniProt Comments
Plays an important role during endosperm starch synthesis. Determines the type of amylopectin structure of starch grain. Synthesizes long B1 amylopectin chains by elongating short A and B1 chains, independently of the other soluble starch synthases. Barely active in japonica subspecies.
