Encodes a fumarase enzyme initially shown to be in the mitochondria through proteomic studies but later shown to be present in the cytosol using an RFP fluorescent protein tag. It appears to be important for the accumulation of fumarate from malate in leaves in the light, and helps to promote nitrogen assimilation under high nitrogen conditions. It does not appear to be necessary for lipid metabolism and seedling growth.
