2.A.20.2.4
Low affinity housekeeping Pi transporter, PHT2, Pht2;1, Pht2,1, PT2-1 of 587 aas (Młodzińska and Zboińska 2016). The cucumber (Cucumis sativus) ortholog is involved in cucumber growth and metabolism; PT2-1 transcript levels in roots were high when grown in low (limiting) Pi-containing media, but low when grown in high Pi media (Naureen et al. 2018). Expressing Pht2;1 of Pteris vittata enhances phosphate transport in chloroplasts and increases arsenic tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana (Feng et al. 2021).
