MATE — Phaseolus vulgaris
Summary
PHAVU_L008943, designated PvMATE and also known as PvFRDL1, encodes a member of the MATE family, specifically a DinF-like protein with citrate transmembrane transporter activity. In French bean, this gene is associated with citrate transport and metabolism, cell wall assembly, response to aluminum, membrane transport, nodulation, ABA signaling, and signal transduction. The encoded protein localizes to the plasmalemma and root hairs. PvMATE is associated with aluminum resistance. Studies of related genes in other species connect the MATE family to aluminum tolerance, as well as to traits including seed weight, seed and flower color, drought tolerance, and root morphology.
