Function
SUC1_ARATH Responsible for the transport of sucrose into the cell, with the concomitant uptake of protons (symport system). This transport is both voltage- and energy-dependent. Can also transport other glucosides such as maltose, alpha-phenylglucoside and beta-phenylglucoside. May also transport biotin. Required for normal pollen germination and anthocyanin accumulation induced by sucrose.[1] [2] [3] [4]
