Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • NRT1.1A is expressed as expected in the cortex of the meristem and elongation zone and in the developing xylem.
  • NRT1.1A is a a nitrate transporter gene.
  • Notably, overexpressed in buzz are two nitrate transporters, NRT1.1A, NRT1.1B, and CIPK23. The latter encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates NRT1.1, switching it from low affinity to high-affinity transport.
  • RNA-Seq, the nitrate transporters NRT1.1A and NRT1.1B are among its most highly upregulated transcripts This transporter is well known to be pivotal for enhancing nitrate responses in roots.
