A maltose transporter from apple is expressed in source and sink tissues and complements the Arabidopsis maltose export-defective mutant.

Plant & cell physiology - 1 Oct 2008

Reidel Edwin J, Turgeon Robert, Cheng Lailiang

Abstract excerpt

Prior to the cytosolic synthesis of transport sugars during transitory starch utilization, intermediate products of starch breakdown, such as maltose, must be exported from chloroplasts. Recent work in Arabidopsis indicates that a novel transporter mediates maltose transfer across the chloroplast inner envelope membrane. We cloned a gene from an apple cDNA library that is highly homologous with the Arabidopsis...
