Gmzip1 encodes a symbiosis-specific zinc transporter in soybean*

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Sophie Moreau from the showed that replacement of key aspartate (Asp, and Asp136) residues of At, with alanine, converted the transporter into a form only able to take up zinc, while the wild type enzyme also catalyzed iron and manganese uptakeInterestingly, unlike strains carrying the D A allele, the strain carrying the D A allele was no longer sensitive to, ., ␮M cadmium, indicating that the strain carrying this allele transports less cadmium than strains carrying either the wild type , or the D A allele. Gm, has both of these conserved aspartate residues and nonetheless is unable . . .
