GTR3 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsGTR3 (CSA17G024710) encodes a protein belonging to the POT family and the major facilitator superfamily, with nitrate transmembrane transporter activity and transmembrane transporter activity. This Camelina sativa gene is associated with phloem nitrate loading and phloem transport, and its product localizes to the membrane and plasmalemma. CsGTR3 is associated with nitrate transport and glucosinolate transport. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to nitrate content and nitrate uptake.
