D3 — Zea mays
Summary
ZM00001EB350510, designated D3 (also known as ZmABCG15, ZmCER5, and ZmFOP2) on maize chromosome 8, encodes an ABCG-family transporter with fatty acyl transporter activity, efflux permease activity, and ATP-coupled transmembrane transporter activity. The gene is associated with cuticle and wax biosynthesis, suberin biosynthesis, and cutin anabolism, as well as fatty acid transport and export from the cell. It has been linked to traits including drought sensitivity, seed viability, salt tolerance, disease tolerance, root development, and plant growth and development. Localization evidence connects the gene product to the plasma membrane, Casparian strip, suberin network, and plasmodesmata. Related genes in other species are linked to cuticular lipid transport, organ fusion prevention, and salt stress response.
