… Under the condition with a large amount of extracellular Na^+, we found that OsHAK5 functions as a Na^+ -insensitive K^+ transporter, while OsHAK2 is sensitive to extracellular Na^+ and exhibits higher Na^+ over K^+ transport activities. … These results suggest that the plasma-membrane localized Na^+ insensitive K^+ transporters, similar to OsHAK5 identified here, could be used as a tool to enhance salt tolerance in plant cells. …
