YS1 — Oryza sativa Japonica

Summary

OsYS1 (YSL1) on rice chromosome 2 encodes a member of the YSL-like family of oligopeptide transporters with Fe-NA chelate transporter activity. The gene is associated with iron transport and membrane transport, response to iron and zinc, nitrogen fixation, phytoalexin biosynthesis, glutathione metabolism, phloem transport, and seed maturation and development. It has been linked to seed iron concentration, grain iron content, metal transport, and saline-alkaline stress tolerance. Localisation evidence connects the product to the plastid envelope, vacuolar membrane, tonoplast, Golgi, mitochondria, and plasmalemma. Associations also include leaf temperature, chlorosis, photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll content, grain weight, plant height, grain yield, and harvest index. Related genes in other species link the family to seed metal loading, copper and zinc remobilisation, and metal homeostasis during senescence.
