    Also known as
    delta vacuolar processing enzyme; DELTA VACUOLAR PROCESSING ENZYME; DELTAVPE
    Summary
    Encodes a vacuolar processing enzyme with caspase-1-like activity that is specifically expressed in inner integument of developing seeds. Mutants display abnormal seed coat development. It is speculated to be involved in cell death of limited cell layers, the purpose of which is to form a seed coat.
