|
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Isoform of EC 1.2.3.1.
- Has a preference for aldehydes having an indole-ring structure as
substrate.
- May play a role in plant hormone biosynthesis as its activity is
higher in the auxin-overproducing mutant, super-root1, than in wild-
type Arabidopsis thaliana.
- While (indol-3-yl)acetaldehyde is the preferred substrate, it also
oxidizes indole-3-carbaldehyde and acetaldehyde, but more slowly.
