Abstract excerpt
Metal tolerance proteins (MTPs) belong to the cation diffusion facilitator family (CDF) and have been implicated in metal transport and homeostasis in different plant species. Here we report on the rice gene OsMTP11 that encodes a putative CDF transporter that is homologous to members of the Mn-CDF cluster. The expression of OsMTP11 was found to enhance Mn tolerance in the Mn-sensitive yeast mutant pmr1....
