PROT1 — Triticum aestivum

Summary

TRAESCS3B02G441300, also known as TaAAP3, PROT1, or TaAAP11E-3B on bread wheat chromosome 3B, encodes an amino acid permease with symporter activity, belonging to the AA_transpt_TM domain family. It is localized to the membrane and plasma membrane. This gene is associated with amino acid transport, coumarin anabolism, phenylpropanoid metabolism, secondary cell wall biogenesis, lignin anabolism, response to wounding, and response to thirst. Observed in this species, TaAAP3 is linked to heat tolerance. It is also associated with high temperature stress response and drought tolerance.
