- Annotation score: -Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Formation of phosphoenolpyruvate. The cytoplasmic isoform supports the biosynthetic processes in the nascent endosperm and provides an efficient mechanism for glycolytic ATP synthesis in oxygen depleted tissues. May be involved in regulating the flux of carbon into starch and fatty acids of seeds and in the remobilization of nitrogen reserves in senescing leaves
