Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Five EcSUT genes encode proteins with 9-12 transmembrane domains.
- Observation The SUT members clustered across all three main SUT groups.
- Observation Synteny revealed conserved regions and 91-94% identity of EcSUT2 with grass orthologs.
- Observation Structural models confirmed typical transmembrane architecture.
- Observation EcSUT2 interacted with SWEET transporters.
- Observation EcSUT2 and EcSUT5 promoters were enriched with hormone and stress-responsive elements.
- Intervention effect EcSUT1-EcSUT4 showed transient induction under drought.
- Mechanism Persistent EcSUT5 upregulation suggests a role in maintaining sucrose transport during long-term adverse conditions.
