A comparison of each YSL transporter's expression in root and nodule tissue from two soybean transcriptome studies is presented (Libault etal., 2010; Severin etal., 2010). A prediction of the number of transmembrane domains (TMD) for each protein was analyzed by SOSUI (http://bp.nuap.nagoya-u.ac.jp/sosui/sosui_submit.html). Homology to AtYSL1, a characterized ferrous iron transporter of the YSL family, was calculated by a clustalW alignment.
