Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os05g48040
• RAPdb gene ID: Os05g0554000
• Gene Symbol: OsMATE2
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Our results reveal that OsMATE1 and OsMATE2 regulate plant growth and development as well as negatively affect disease resistance.
• The OsMATE2 upon constitutive expression in tobacco decreases root-to-shoot As transfer coefficient and its endosperm-specific silencing in rice reduces grain As content, broadening the role of MATE proteins in planta.
• Transgenic rice lines demonstrated significant reduction of both OsMATE2 transcript (~<U+2009>38-87%) and grain As content (36.
• 6%) along with augmented As sensitivity by increasing oxidative stress compared to untransformed control plants, indicating the involvement of OsMATE2 in As accumulation.
• Expression of rice MATE family transporter OsMATE2 modulates arsenic accumulation in tobacco and rice.
