General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | NRT1.5 belongs to the NRT1 family of transporters | Arabidopsis thaliana |
malfunction | functional disruption of NRT1.5 enhances tolerance to salt, drought and cadmium stresses, also nitrate as well as Na+ and Cd2+ levels are significantly increased in nrt1.5 roots. Genes including NHX1, SOS1, P5CS1, RD29A, AtPCS1 and NRT1.8, important in stress response pathways, are steadily upregulated in nrt1.5 mutant plants | Arabidopsis thaliana |
metabolism | nitrate reallocation to roots might be a common response to stresses and is coordinately regulated by NRT1.8 and NRT1.5 genes, overview | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | NRT1.5 functions to mediate nitrate reallocation to roots, stress-responsive gene expression and metabolism, and consequently salt, drought and Cd2+ tolerance. NRT1.5 is involved in nitrate allocation to roots and the consequent tolerance to several stresses, in a mechanism probably shared with NRT1.8. NRT1.5 works together with NRT1.8 to fine-tune nitrate long-distance transport from roots to shoots | Arabidopsis thaliana |
