Inositol monophosphatase family protein;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary:
Encodes a fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. This enzyme, in addition to catalyzing the formation of fructose-6-phosphate for sucrose biosynthesis, appears to play a role in fructose-mediated signaling that is independent of its enzymatic activity. atcfbp-1/fins1 mutants have reduced photosynthetic rates, elevated levels of starch and reduced levels of sucrose during the day. Although the protein is expected to be cytosolic, a GFP-tagged version localizes to the cytoplasm and the nucleus. The mRNA is cell-to-cell mobile.
