WR3 — Lactuca sativa
Summary
LsWR3, encoded by the gene LSAT_V11C400158750 on lettuce chromosome 4, is a protein with a Transptr_NO3_Nar2 domain and nitrate transmembrane transporter activity. The gene is associated with nitrate transmembrane transport, cellular response to nitrate, nitrate assimilation, response to wounding, and cell wall organization, and its product localizes to the membrane and plasmalemma. LsWR3 is associated with traits including biomass yield, seed yield, root development, flowering time, drought tolerance, disease tolerance, nitrogen sensitivity, cadmium concentration, anthocyanin content, and root hair length. Related genes in other species link the family to high-affinity nitrate uptake and nitrate accumulation.
