MATE — Brassica napus

Summary

BnMATE (DARMORV10_C03P89910.1) on chromosome C03 of oilseed rape encodes a member of the MATE family, containing a DinF-like domain and annotated with citrate transmembrane transporter activity. The gene is associated with citrate transport, as well as the metabolism of pentose, quinone, zeatin, ALA, pigment, proline, methionine, glutamate, glutathione, glucosinolate, lignin, phenylpropanoid, fatty acid, and flavonoid compounds. It is linked to pigmentation, response to aluminum, and root hair localization at the plasma membrane. Associations with root length and aluminum resistance have been noted. Studies of related genes in other species connect the MATE family to aluminum tolerance and drought tolerance, and to root morphology traits.
