ALS3 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_001G172900 (PvALS3) on chromosome 1 of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) encodes a member of the UPF0014 protein family and is annotated with UDP-glucose transmembrane transporter activity. The gene is associated with UDP-glucose transmembrane transport, response to aluminum, and detoxification, and its product localises to the vesicle membrane and plasmalemma. PvALS3 is associated with aluminum tolerance and resistance, aluminum sensitivity, root growth, primary root growth, shoot development, and phosphate deficiency response. Related genes in other species are linked to aluminium tolerance, aluminum detoxification, and aluminum stress tolerance.
