AAP1 — Brassica napus

Summary

BnAAP1 (DARMORV10_C01P36220.1) on chromosome C01 of oilseed rape encodes an amino acid permease with transmembrane transporter activity for L-serine, L-proline, L-alanine, L-glutamine, L-glutamate and neutral amino acids. The gene is associated with amino acid import, phloem loading, meristem and seed development, leaf and flower development, leaf senescence, cytokinin metabolism, protein breakdown, and response to nematodes. It localises to the plasma membrane. BnAAP1 is linked to seed size, seed weight, seed protein content, seed yield, nitrogen use efficiency, nitrogen content, amino acid content and transport, rubisco content, forage yield, proline accumulation, and nematode resistance. Related genes in other species are linked to salt tolerance and calcium-enhanced proline toxicity.
