Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb092880
• Gene Symbol: ZmHIPP hipp1
• Gene Name: heavy metal-associated isoprenylated plant protein1
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• A novel gene ZmHIPP controlling Pb-tolerance in maize was identified by QTL mapping and WGCNA.
• ZmHIPP was confirmed to modulate Pb-tolerance in maize, Arabidopsis, and yeast.
• Genetic variation in the promoter of ZmHIPP affected the tolerance of maize to Pb stress.
• Effects of ZmHIPP on lead tolerance in maize seedlings: Novel ideas for soil bioremediation.
• ZmHIPP improves Pb deposition in the cell wall, alleviating Pb toxicity in maize.
• The polymorphism (A/G) in ZmHIPP promoter contributes to the difference in Pb-tolerance among maize lines.
