The graph shown above is K+ or Na+ concentration in cells of<i> S.cerevisiae</i> &Delta;ENA1&Delta;NHA1 strain. Each gene in the graph was cloned to yeast vectors, which were introduced to yeasts. The word “high” means high copy plasmid and the word “low” means low copy plasmids. These transformed yeasts are cultured in SD containing 400mM NaCl. Detailed data are on our wiki.'''[http://2018.igem.org/Team:Kyoto Kyoto2018]'''<br>

These results show that AVP1 contributes to accumulation of K+ and Na+ in a yeast cell.<br><br>

 +
This is interpreted as an increment of the H+ concentration in the vacuole, which promotes the relatively inactive endogenous NHX1 function of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and isolates cytoplasmic Na+  in vacuoles. We believe that the increase in the total Na+ content in the cells is due to the expression of the AVP1 gene and this is caused by the same mechanism as this.

TDH3-AVP1-6xHis-CYC

This is a vacuolar H+-pyrophosphatase of Arabidopsis thaliana. This protein functions as a proton pump on the vacuolar membrane. Several papers have found that overexpression of AVP1 increases the salt tolerance of some plants such as tomato, rice and cotton. Experiments carried out on transgenic plants showed that as the AVP1 expression level increased the accumulation and retention of solutes was higher than that of the wild type.
