Protein function
Encodes an oxidase involved in the catabolism of bioactive gibberellins.
Phenotype
Overexpressor: GA20X8 overexpressor is late flowering under both SD and LD conditions. ( Plants are dwarfed and show pleiotropic defects. The flowering-time phenotype is stronger under SD conditions.)
[Schomburg et al., 2003] Multiple mutant: ga2ox7;8 multiple mutant is early flowering under both SD and LD conditions.
[Schomburg et al., 2003] Single mutant: ga2ox8 single mutant is early flowering under SD conditions only.
[Schomburg et al., 2003] Function:Catalyzes the 2-beta-hydroxylation of gibberellins (GA) precursors, rendering them unable to be converted to active GAs. Hydroxylates the C20-GA GA12 and GA53, but is not active on C19-GAs, like GA1, GA4, GA9 and GA20.
