The Iron Assimilatory Protein, FEA1, from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Facilitates Iron-Specific Metal Uptake in Yeast and Plants

We demonstrate that the unique green algal iron assimilatory protein, FEA1, is able to complement the Arabidopsis iron-transporter mutant, irt1, as well as enhance iron accumulation in FEA1 expressing wild-type plants. Expression of the FEA1 protein reduced iron-deficient growth phenotypes when plan...
