Term Name: | jasmonoyl-L-amino acid ligase activity |
---|---|
Synonyms: | ja-amino synthetase activity, jasmonate-amido synthetase activity, jasmonate-amino acid conjugate synthetase activity, jasmonate-amino acid synthetase activity, jasmonate-amino synthetase activity, jasmonate:amino acid synthetase activity, jasmonic acid-amino synthetase activity, jasmonyl-amino synthetase activity |
Definition: | Catalysis of the reaction: a jasmonate + an L-alpha-amino acid + ATP = a jasmonyl-L-amino acid + AMP + diphosphate + H+. In Arabidopsis, isoleucine is the principal amino acid that conjugates with JA to form JA (JA-Ile). Other amino acid can be conjugated with JA such as valine, leucine, and phenylalanine. |
