    Also known as
    ATOPT3; DL4215C; FCAALL.72; oligopeptide transporter
    Summary
    Encodes an oligopeptide transporter involved in metal homeostasis. It loads iron into the phloem, facilitates iron recirculation from the xylem to the phloem, and regulates both shoot-to-root iron signaling and iron redistribution from mature to developing tissues.
