Catalases () are present in almost all living organisms and play important roles in plant development and response to various stresses. However, there is relatively little information on genes in wheat and related species. A few studies on family genes in wheat have been reported. In this study, ten proteins () were identified in wheat and classified into three groups based on their phylogenetic features and sequence analysis. The analysis of the structure and motif composition of the proteins suggested that a segmental duplication event occurred in the gene family. Collinearity relationship analysis among different species showed that there were three orthologous genes in rice and in maize. By analyzing the -elements in the promoter regions, we speculated that genes expression might be regulated by light, oxygen deficit, methyl jasmonate and abscisic acid, and by transcription factors such as MYB. A Gene Ontology (GO)-based analysis showed that proteins may be related to the response to various stresses, are cytoplasm localized, and may function as antioxidant enzymes. RT-qPCR and transcriptome data analyses exhibited distinct expression patterns of genes in different tissues and in response to various treatments. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of wheat genes was performed, enriching our knowledge of genes and providing a foundation for further functional analyses of this gene family in wheat.
过氧化氢酶(Catalases)存在于几乎所有的生物中,在植物发育和对各种胁迫的反应中发挥着重要作用。然而,关于小麦和相关物种的基因信息相对较少。已有一些关于小麦家族基因的研究报道。在这项研究中,在小麦中鉴定出了 10 种过氧化氢酶蛋白(),并根据其系统发育特征和序列分析将其分为三组。对过氧化氢酶蛋白的结构和基序组成分析表明,该基因家族发生了片段重复事件。不同物种间的共线性关系分析表明,在水稻和玉米中有三个同源的基因。通过分析启动子区域中的元件,我们推测基因的表达可能受到光、缺氧、茉莉酸甲酯和脱落酸以及 MYB 等转录因子的调控。基于基因本体论(GO)的分析表明,过氧化氢酶蛋白可能与对各种胁迫的反应有关,定位于细胞质中,并可能作为抗氧化酶发挥作用。RT-qPCR 和转录组数据分析显示,基因在不同组织中的表达模式以及对各种处理的反应存在明显差异。本研究对小麦基因进行了全面分析,丰富了我们对基因的认识,并为进一步研究该基因家族在小麦中的功能提供了基础。
