Cesium (Cs) in the environment is primarily absorbed by a potassium (K) transporter. OsHAK5 is a KT/HAK/KUP family K-transporter showing a high affinity for K. We created cultured rice cells whose OsHAK5 was knocked down by RNAi (named KD). In the medium containing 1.0 m m and less K, the growth of KD was significantly suppressed, suggesting that OsHAK5 greatly contributed to K absorption under limited K conditions. Although Cs suppressed the growth of KD and WT, stronger inhibition was observed on KD. Both KD and WT accumulated similar amounts of Cs when they were cultured in a medium containing Cs, whereas lower amounts of K were detected in KD. These results suggest that OsHAK5 was less involved in the absorption of Cs, although it was essential to K absorption under limited K conditions. In contrast, this means that another transporter may contribute to cesium uptake in rice. |
