| Research Abstract |
This research demonstrates the function of MAB4 subfamily gene in polar auxin transport. MAB4 and MEL genes, which are expressed in various tissues and organs, regulate polar auxin transport redundantly. These proteins are localized in the same side of plasma membrane as auxin efflux carries. MAB4 subfamily genes regulate the localization of auxin efflux carrier by inhibiting of its endocytosis.
