Description OsYSL2 is a rice metal-nicotianamine transporter, its expression was induced in the leaves by the iron deficiency. OsYSL2:GFP was localized in the plasma membrane.OsYSL2:GUS activity was detected in companion cells in iron deficient roots. In the leaves and leaf sheaths of iron-sufficient rice, GUS staining was observed in phloem cells of the vascular bundles, suggesting OsYSL2 is involved in the pholem transport of iron. Analysis showed OsYSL2 transported iron(III)-nicotianamine (NA) and manganese(II)-NA, but did not transport iron(III)-phyosiderophore. Expression in developing seed suggests the translocation of iron and manganese into the grain.
