The LHT Gene Family in Rice: Molecular Characterization, Transport Functions and Expression Analysis
Amino acid transporters (AATs) are integral membrane proteins and play important roles in plant growth and development as well as environmental responses.In contrast to the amino acid permease (AAP) subfamily, functional studies of the lysine and histidine transporter (LHT) subfamily have not been made in rice.In the current study, six LHT genes we
