Gene Details:
- Gene ID: Medtr3g063490
- Gene Symbol: MtYSL7
- Gene Name:
- Genome: M. truncatula Genome Project site (http://www.jcvi.org/medicago/index.php).
- Species: Medicago truncatula
Functional Descriptions:
- Medicago truncatula Yellow Stripe-Like7 (MtYSL7) encodes a peptide transporter participating in symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
- MtYSL7, which encodes a plasma membrane-bound protein, is mainly expressed in the pericycle and cortex cells of the root nodules.
- M. truncatula transposon insertion mutants with decreased expression of MtYSL7 had lower nitrogen fixation rates and showed reduced plant growth whether grown in symbiosis with rhizobia or not.
- These data suggest that MtYSL7 plays an important role in the transition metal homeostasis of nodules and symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
