Structure and Functional aspects of Sucrose Synthase from Arabidopsis thaliana
Sucrose Synthase 1 (EC:2.4.1.13), also known as the Sucrose-UDP glucolsyltransferase 1 or simply Susy, is a reversible enzyme allowing the synthesis or the degradation of Sucrose in Arabidopsis thaliana. It belongs to the Glycosyltransferase subfamily 4 (GT4).
