Function Has a 11,12(11',12') 9-cis epoxycarotenoid cleavage activity. Catalyzes the first step of abscisic-acid biosynthesis from carotenoids. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11532178}.
Subcellular Location Plastid, chloroplast stroma {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12834401}. Note=Partially bound to the thylakoid.
Tissue Specificity Very low in all tissues. Expressed at the point of organ attachment and the abscission zones in the plant. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12834401, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16412079}.
