General annotation (Comments)

Function

High affinity ammonium transporter probably involved in ammonium uptake from the soil, long-distance transport to the shoots and re-uptake of apoplastic ammonium that derives from photorespiration in shoots. Contributes with AMT1-3 to the overall ammonium uptake capacity in roots under nitrogen-deficiency conditions. Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.11

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Ref.10 Ref.11.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in roots. Expressed in root tips, root hairs, root epidermis, rhizodermis, cortex and pericycle. Expressed in leaves epidermal and mesophyll cells. Ref.5 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.14

Induction

By nitrogen deprivation in roots and nitrogen supply in leaves. Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.14 Ref.15

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylation level varies significantly during early response to general elicitors.

Disruption phenotype

No effect on ammonium uptake. Higher expression of AMT1-2; AMT1-3 and AMT2-1. Ref.6

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ammonia transporter channel (TC 1.A.11.2) family. [View classification]

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

Measured in yeast knockout mutant YCW012.

KM=22 µM for ammonium chloride (at external pH 6.1) Ref.7 Ref.9

Sequence caution

The sequence AAK59819.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 125.

The sequence AAM47470.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 125.
