Amino acid permease RcAAP1 increases the uptake and phloem translocation of an L-valine-phenazine-1-carboxylic acid conjugate.

ABSTRACT: Amino acid conjugates of pesticides can promote the phloem translocation of parent ingredients, allowing for the reduction of usage, and decreased environmental pollution. Plant transporters play important roles in the uptake and phloem translocation of such amino acid-pesticide conjugates such as L-Val-PCA (L-valine-phenazine-1-carboxylic acid conjugate). However, the effects of an amino acid permease, RcAAP1, on the uptake and phloem mobility of L-Val-PCA are still unclear. Here, the relative expression levels of RcAAP1 were found to be up-regulated 2.7-fold and 2.2-fold by the qRT-PCR after L-Val-PCA treatments of Ricinus cotyledons for 1 h and 3 h, respectively. Subsequently, expression of RcAAP1 in yeast cells increased the L-Val-PCA uptake (0.36 μmol/10⁷
