NHX1 — Cucumis melo
Summary
MELO3C013102.2, designated CmNHX1 on melon chromosome 2, encodes a cation/H+ exchanger of the CPA1 family with sodium:hydrogen exchanger, potassium:proton antiporter and lithium:proton antiporter activities. The gene is associated with vacuolar membrane transport, sodium import, lithium export, potassium ion homeostasis, cell pH regulation, and response to superoxide. It is linked to yield, photosynthetic rate, stomatal resistance, plant height, root development, and abiotic stress responses including high temperature stress response. Associations also include auxin content, abscisic acid sensitivity, disease tolerance, and seedling growth and development traits. The product localises to the tonoplast, vacuole, endosome, plastid and chloroplast envelope, and is connected to retromer complex and MVB functions.
