Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

  • Os10g0513200 <=> OsNIP3;1,NIP3-1
Figure 2. Subcellular localization of GFP–OsNIP3;1.[1].

Function

  • OsNIP3;1 is a member of the major intrinsic protein family in rice
  • OsNIP3;1 regulates boron distribution among shoot tissues, and that the correct boron distribution is crucial for plant growth.
  • OsNIP3;1 promoter activity in the exodermis and vascular bundles

Expression

  • The accumulation of OsNIP3;1 transcript increased fivefold in roots within 6 h of the onset of boron starvation, but not in shoots. Promoter–GUS analysis suggested that OsNIP3;1 is expressed mainly in exodermal cells and steles in roots, as well as in cells around the vascular bundles in leaf sheaths and pericycle cells around the xylem in leaf blades.

Subcellular Localization

  • Subcellular localization analysis showed that OsNIP3;1 was localized to the plasma membrane
