Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb284160
• Gene Symbol: ZmZIP7
• Gene Name: zinc-regulated, iron-regulated transporter-like protein7
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Constitutive expression of the ZmZIP7 in Arabidopsis alters metal homeostasis and increases Fe and Zn content.
• Overexpression of the ZmZIP7 elevates Zn/Fe contents in Arabidopsis.
• ZmZIP7 transgenic Arabidopsis have altered the expression of genes involved in Zn/Fe homeostasis.
• ZmZIP7 encodes a functional Zn and Fe transporter, and ectopic overexpression of ZmZIP7 in Arabidopsis stimulate endogenous Fe and Zn uptake mechanisms, thereby facilitating both metal uptake and homeostasis.
