It has a fundamental role in the Sucrose flow regulation since it is able to produce Sucrose (used for transportation and stockage) and both ADP-Glucose and UDP-Glucose. It is one of the only four proteins able to synthesize or cleave the Sucrose, thereby Sucrose synthase is implied in many pathways including cell wall, starch and glycoprotein synthesis <ref>Baroja-Fernández, E., Muñoz, F.J., Saikusa, T., Rodríguez-López, M., Akazawa, T. and Pozueta-Romero, J.

Sucrose synthase catalyses the cleavage reaction at pH around 7 and the synthesis reaction at pH above 9. Therefore, it is a linker between all the pathways that use or synthesize sucrose. SUS is involved in biomass production, nitrogen fixation, fruit and seed maturation and can response to stress (cold, anaerobic conditions, drought or gene induction).

This Sandbox is Reserved from 15/12/2015, through 15/06/2016 for use in the course "Structural Biology" taught by Bruno Kieffer at the University of Strasbourg, ESBS. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1120 through Sandbox Reserved 1159.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
