NLP1 — Medicago truncatula
Summary
MTR_3G115400, symbol NLP1 and also known as MtNLP4, encodes a protein of the NLP (NIN-like protein) family, containing RWP-RK, PB1 and GAF domains, and is annotated with DNA-binding transcription factor activity. This gene is associated with nitrate response, nitrate import, nitrogen fixation, nodulation, nitrogen homeostasis, sumoylation, and DNA-templated transcription, and its product localises to the nucleus. It is also linked to nitrate uptake. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to root hair length, root hair density, lateral root growth, and cell elongation, and sequence similarity links the family to shoot fresh weight and lateral root length.
