Gene Details:
- Gene ID:
- Gene Symbol: AhNRAMP1
- Gene Name: natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1
- Genome:
- Species: Arachis hypogaea
Functional Descriptions:
- AhNRAMP1 iron transporter is involved in iron acquisition in peanut.
- AhNRAMP1, which belongs to divalent metal transporters of the natural resistance-associated macrophage protein (NRAMP) gene family was isolated. Yeast complementation assays suggested that AhNRAMP1 encodes a functional iron transporter.
- Transient expression, laser microdissection, and in situ hybridization analyses revealed that AhNRAMP1 was mainly localized on the plasma membrane of the epidermis of peanut roots.
- Induced expression of AhNRAMP1 in tobacco conferred enhanced tolerance to iron deprivation. These results suggest that the AhNRAMP1 is possibly involved in iron acquisition in peanut plants.
