| Function | Involved in monoterpene (C10) biosynthesis. The major product is 1,8-cineole (52%) followed by minor amounts of sabinene (14.5%), myrcene (13.3%), (-)-(1S)-beta-pinene (7.8%), (-)-(4S)- limonene (4.0%), (E)-beta-ocimene (2.7%), alpha-terpineol (2.4%), (-)-(1S)-alpha-pinene (1.9%), terpinolene (0.8%), and (+)-alpha- thujene (0.6%). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15299125}. |
| Subcellular Location | Plastid, chloroplast {ECO:0000305}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Predominantly expressed in roots and at much lower levels in siliques. Not found in leaves, flowers or stems. Also detected in flowers in cv. Landsberg erecta. Not expressed in root apical meristem and elongation zone. Found in the vascular system of young roots and additionally in the cortex and epidermal cell layer of older roots. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12566586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15299125}. |
