Gene : NIP6;1 A. thaliana

DB identifier	AT1G80760	Secondary Identifier	locus:2025822
Name	NOD26-like intrinsic protein 6;1	Brief Description	NOD26-like intrinsic protein 6;1

TAIR Computational Description	NOD26-like intrinsic protein 6;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary	Encodes a protein with boron transporter activity. It helps to preferentially direct boron to young developing tissues in the shoot, such as immature leaves, under low boron conditions. This boron channel appears to be impermeable to water, unlike the closely related NIP5;1 boron transporter. This protein also allows the transport of glycerol, urea, and formimide but not larger uncharged solutes such as arabitol and sucrose when it is expressed heterologously.
TAIR Short Description	NOD26-like intrinsic protein 6;1
TAIR Aliases	NIP6, NIP6;1, NLM7
