Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os01g08300
• RAPdb gene ID: Os01g0178300
• Gene Symbol: OsCDT3
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• OsCDT3 was mainly expressed in the roots and its expression was specifically induced by Al exposure, not by low pH and other metals.
• Expression of OsCDT3 in yeast conferred tolerance to Al, but not to Cd.
• Taken together, our results indicate that OsCDT3 anchoring to the plasma membrane may play a role in stopping entry of Al into the root cells by binding Al, therefore, contributing to high Al tolerance in rice.
