Gene Details:

• Gene ID: CsaV3_4G030920;Csa4G470690
• Gene Symbol: CsAAP2
• Gene Name: Amino Acid Permease 2
• Genome: Cucurbit Genomics Database
• Species: Cucumis sativus

Functional Descriptions:

• Disruption of the amino acid transporter CsAAP2 inhibits auxin-mediated root development in cucumber.
• CsAAP2 as a candidate gene encoding a functional amino acid transporter is highly expressed in cucumber root vascular cells.
• CsAAP2 knockout lines exhibited arrested development of root meristem, which then caused the delayed initiation of lateral root and the inhibition of root elongation.
• CsAAP2 could play a key role in the uptake and transport of amino acids in cucumber roots.
• These results indicated that CsAAP2 may participate in cucumber development, especially the root development.
