Also known as
9-CIS EPOXYCAROTENOID DIOXYGENASE DEFECTIVE 1; BODYGUARD1; CED1; F1N19.24; F1N19_24
Summary
Encodes a epidermally expressed extracellular protein that likely functions as an alpha-beta hydrolase and is required for normal cuticle formation. Homozygous mutant plants are dwarfed and have abnormal leaves, collapsed cells, reduced numbers of trichomes. The specific role of BDG is unclear: it may function in cutin biosynthesis or as a cross-linking enzyme in the cell wall itself.

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. This study identifies BDG as an important component of the cutin biosynthesis machinery in Arabidopsis. Using BDG, cutin can be greatly modified without altering the cuticular water barrier properties and transpiration.[BDG]
    Title: BODYGUARD is required for the biosynthesis of cutin in Arabidopsis.
  2. Map-based cloning revealed unexpectedly that CED1 encodes a putative alpha/beta hydrolase domain-containing protein and is allelic to the BODYGUARD gene that was recently shown to be essential for cuticle biogenesis.
    Title: The plant cuticle is required for osmotic stress regulation of abscisic acid biosynthesis and osmotic stress tolerance in Arabidopsis.
  3. Bodyguard (BDG) codes for an extracellular synthase responsible for the formation of cuticle.[BDG]
