Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: MtMOT1.2
  • Gene Name: Molybdate Transporter 1.2
  • Genome:
  • Species: Medicago truncatula

Functional Descriptions:

  • MtMOT1.2 is responsible for molybdate supply to Medicago truncatula nodules.
  • This phenotype was the result of molybdate not reaching the nitrogen-fixing nodules, since genetic complementation with a wild-type MtMOT1.2 gene or molybdate-fortification of the nutrient solution, both restored wild-type levels of growth and nitrogenase activity.
  • MtMOT1.2 is located in the plasma membrane and intracellular compartments in the endodermal/periccle layer in roots and nodules.
  • MtMOT1.2 is required for molybdate delivery to nitrogen fixing root nodules.
  • These results support a model in which MtMOT1.2 would mediate molybdate delivery by the vasculature into the nodules.
