Abstract

We isolated a rice cDNA clone which encodes an open reading frame of 382 amino acids. Its deduced amino acid sequence corresponds to an ATP/ADP translocator protein. Its homology with a maize ATP/ADP translocator was 83.9% in nucleotide sequence, and 90.2% of the amino acid level. Expression of this gene is regulated by such external stresses as salinity and low temperature.
