Annotated Information
Gene Symbol
- Os07g0134000 <=> OsAAT60,AAT60
Function
- Amino acid transporters (AATs) are the integral membrane proteins which mediate the transport of amino acids across cellular membranes in higher plants, and play an indispensable role in various processes of plant growth and development, including long distance amino acid transport, response to pathogen and abiotic stresses [1] [2] .
Expression
- Diverse expression patterns of OsAAT genes indicated diverse biological functions of the amino acid transporters and the important roles of OsAAT genes in N uptake, metabolism and distribution during N starvation.
Evolution
- The increase in the number of OsAAT members reflects that expansion and rearrangement of the genome may be successfully undergone in the OsAAT family, and these transporters increased in rice might play an important role in order to adapt to specific functions.
