cer2 lacks waxes longer than C28, implying that CER2 is required for C28 elongation. GFP-tagged CER2 localizes to the ER. Site-directed mutagenesis indicates that the classification of CER2 as a BAHD acyltransferase does not fit with CER2 catalytic activity. Function of CER2 in C28 elongation shown by assay in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
