NCBI Protein Information
aluminum-activated malate transporter 1
NCBI Summary
Encodes a Al-activated malate efflux transporter. Is essential for aluminum tolerance but does not represent the major Al tolerance QTL. Staurosporine and calyculin A both block all changes in AtALMT1 gene expression (as a result malate release is totally inhibited).
