| Function |
Catalyzes the oxidation of cytokinins, a family of N(6)- substituted adenine derivatives that are plant hormones, where the substituent is an isopentenyl group. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in the vascular system of roots, of young growing leaves and of the most apical portion of the growing stem. No expression in the root apical meristem. In flowers, restricted to the vascular bundles and transmitting tissue of developing gynoeciae. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14555694}.
