To identify key amino acid sites in AtGDPD-Like3, we constructed S538A, V556A and D628A single site mutation of AtGDPD-Like3, which were expressed in atgdpdl3 mutants, respectively. The results showed that AtGDPD-Like3 with V556A or D628A mutation could completely restore root hairs growth defects of atgdpdl3, whereas, AtGDPD-Like3 with S538A mutation partially restored root hairs growth defects. These indicate that Ser538 is the key amino acid site in AtGDPD-Like3, which affects function of its protein. Meanwhile, it implies other key amino acid sites in AtGDPD-Like3. The results of this study would lay a foundation for further exploring the functional mechanism of AtGDPD-Like3 protein. %U https://bbr.nefu.edu.cn/EN/10.7525/j.issn.1673-5102.2020.01.012
