Abstract excerpt
A complementation approach of the yeast fet3fet4 mutant strain, defective in both low- and high-affinity iron transport, was initiated as an attempt to characterize the Fe(III)-mugineic acid (MA) transporter from grasses. A maize cDNA encoding a novel MYC transcription factor, named 7E, was cloned by screening an iron-deficient maize root cDNA expression library on a minimum media containing Fe(III)-deoxyMA as a...
