TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a Al-activated malate efflux transporter. It is essential for aluminum tolerance but does not represent the major Al tolerance QTL. Staurosporine and calyculin A both block all changes in AtALMT1 gene expression (as a result malate release is totally inhibited). AtALMT1 transcription was clearly induced by indole-3-acetic acid, abscisic acid, low pH, hydrogen peroxide and flg22. STOP1 and CAMTA2 transcription factors are involved in Al-inducible expression of AtALMT1 and both proteins bind to the AtALMT1 promoter. |
