High impact information on ATAMT1;3

  • Transcript levels of AtAMT1;1, which possesses an affinity in the nanomolar range, steeply increased with ammonium uptake in roots when nitrogen nutrition became limiting, whereas those of AtAMT1;3 increased slightly, with AtAMT1;2 being more constitutively expressed [1].
  • In these N-deprived plants, mRNA copy numbers of root AtAMT1;3 and AtAMT2;1 mRNA were significantly more increased in the mutant than in wild-type plants [2].
  • Physiological studies on isolated mesophyll protoplasts with 15NH4+ revealed the presence of a high-affinity ammonium transporter that shared physiological similarity to the high-affinity NH4+ transporters in Arabidopsis thaliana (AtAMT1;3) [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ATAMT1;3

  • PCR techniques were used to isolate a full-length clone of a B. napus homologue of AMT1 from shoot mRNA which showed 97% similarity to AtAMT1;3 [3].
