The Pho1 phosphate permease family (TC# 2.A.94) is a family of phosphate transporters belonging to the ion transporter (IT) superfamily.[1] Representative members of the Pho1 family include the putative phosphate transporter PHO1 of Arabidopsis thaliana (TC# 2.A.94.1.1), and the xenotropic and polytropic murine-leukemia virus receptor Xpr1 of Culex pipiens (TC# 2.A.94.1.2).

Pho1

Pho1 of A. thaliana is a member of the PHO1 family (11 paralogues in A. thaliana). This protein is 782 amino acyl residues in length and possesses 7 transmembrane segments (TMSs). It functions in inorganic phosphate transport and homeostasis. Pho1 catalyzes efflux of phosphate from epidermal and cortical cells into the xylem.[2][3] The SPX superfamily domain is an N-terminal soluble domain. These proteins belong to the EXS (Erd1/Xpr1/Syg1) superfamily.

The generalized reaction catalyzed by Pho1 is:[4]

Pi (cells) → Pi (xylem)
