MATE — Medicago truncatula
Summary
MTR_2G097900 (MtMATE, also known as MtFRDL1) encodes a MATE family transporter with citrate transmembrane transporter activity, localised to the plasma membrane and root hairs. In barrel medic, this gene is associated with citrate transport, acid secretion, proanthocyanidin anabolism, pigmentation, response to aluminum, detoxification, secretion, NO storage, chromatin organization, membrane transport, homeostasis, cell death, and seedling development. It has been connected to flower color and aluminum resistance. Studies of related genes in other species link the MATE/FRDL1 family to seed color, seed coat color, seed weight, drought tolerance, root morphology, and aluminum tolerance.
