Protein function

Encodes an oxidase involved in the catabolism of bioactive gibberellins.

Phenotype

Multiple mutant:
ga2ox2;4 and ga2ox2;4;6 multiple mutants are early flowering under SD conditions. ( No data available under LD conditions.) [Rieu et al., 2008]

Single mutant:
ga2ox4 single mutant is early flowering under SD conditions. [Rieu et al., 2008]

Remarks:
GA2OX4 seems to be the main GA2 oxidase involved in the control of flowering time. [Rieu et al., 2008]

Multiple mutant:
The quintuple ga2ox mutant (i.e. ga2ox1;2;3;4;6)) is early flowering under both SD and LD conditions. ( The flowering-time phenotype much stronger under SD conditions.) [Rieu et al., 2008]

Function:
Catalyzes the 2-beta-hydroxylation of several biologically active gibberellins, leading to the homeostatic regulation of their endogenous level. Catabolism of gibberellins (GAs) plays a central role in plant development. Converts GA9/GA20 to GA51/GA29 and GA4/GA1 to GA34/GA8. [Data from UniProt]
