Acyltransferase involved in the production of green leaf volatiles (GLVs). Uses acetyl-CoA as substrate, but not malonyl-CoA or benzoyl-CoA. Prefers primary, medium-chain-length, aliphatic alcohols. (3Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol + acetyl-CoA = (3Z)-hex-3-en-1-yl acetate + CoA Inhibited by magnesium, calcium, cobalt, zinc and copper. Optimum pH is 7.1-7.3. Expressed in leaves and stems. Lower levels in flowers and barely detected in roots and siliques. Up-regulated by wounding with a peak 3 hours after wounding. Loss of (3Z)-hex-3-en-1-yl acetate production. Belongs to the plant acyltransferase family.
