“…Overall, expression levels of phosphate transporters were higher in the P-limited treatment, but were not statistically different in the N-limited treatment, compared to the replete treatment (Figure 3E ). The most highly expressed gene in the P-limited treatment was one of two genes that were annotated as putative pho4 family genes, a high-affinity sodium-phosphate transporter family that is generally regulated by phosphorous starvation in fungi (Dick et al, 2014 ) (Supplemental Figure 2 ). The expression level of this gene was higher in the P-limited treatment compared to the replete treatment.…”

“…Two high-affinity Pi uptake systems act in fungi; H + /Pi transporters homologous to PHT1 proteins and Na + /Pi transporters homologous to PTB proteins are active in Pi uptake in low external Pi conditions in N. crassa, S. cerevisiae and Yarrowia lipolytica. Differences in pH optima and counter-ion selectivity of the fungal Na + /Pi and H + /Pi symporters have led to the hypothesis that different transporters are active in different environmental conditions, providing the organisms with a wide adaptive range (Versaw, 1995;Zvyagilskaya & Persson, 2003;Dick et al, 2014). This could also be true in streptophyte algae and early diverging land plants, where both PHT1 and core PTB proteins are probably active in Pi uptake.…”

“…Phosphorus is absorbed largely as inorganic phosphate (Pi), through Pi transporters located at the plasma membrane of cells at the interface with the external environment. High-affinity and low-affinity Pi transporters catalyse Pi uptake from environments containing micromolar and millimolar concentrations of Pi, respectively (Werner et al, 1998;Harris et al, 2001;Werner & Kinne, 2001;Bucher, 2006;Dick et al, 2014). Chlorophytes and streptophytes are two monophyletic clades that constitute the green plant lineage.…”

“…This signature sequence is highlighted with red letters in Figure 1A. The human proteins from this family are thought to be involved in housekeeping functions and are called PiT1 and PiT2, whereas the Neurospora crassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae members are called Pho-4 and Pho89, respectively [32,33]. Mutations in the signature sequence of the PiT2 protein block Pi transport [34].…”
