CC -!- FUNCTION: Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues
CC that bind various heavy metals (Probable). Functions as metal chelator
CC of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) (PubMed:18287486). Plays a role in storing
CC and distributing Zn ion in seed (PubMed:22014117).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18287486, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117,
CC ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}. Nucleus
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}. Cell membrane
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=1;
CC Comment=A number of isoforms are produced. According to EST
CC sequences.;
CC Name=1;
CC IsoId=Q42377-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed specifically in seeds.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: During embryo development, expressed from torpedo
CC stage (6 days after pollination) to mature embryo.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: By abscisic acid (ABA) and jasmonic acid. Down-regulated by
CC gibberellin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Plants silencing both MT4A and MT4B have reduced seed
CC weight and reduced seedling growth after germination.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22014117}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 15 family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
