Description
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. This enzyme is produced by grasses. They secrete both the nicotianamine and the transaminated product into the soil around them. Both compounds chelate iron(II) and iron(III); these chelators, called mugineic acid family phytosiderophores, are taken up by the grass, which is thereby supplied with iron.
