摘要
通过生物信息学手段,对毛竹GRF(Growth-regulating factors, GRFs)转录因子基因家族成员展开研究,主要包括对毛竹转录因子家族成员的鉴定、基本信息的分析、进化分析、基因结构分析、保守基序分析、保守结构域分析、以及在不同组织中的表达分析。一共鉴定了18条毛竹GRF转录因子。根据拟南芥、水稻的系统进化树分析,将毛竹GRF转录因子划分为6个家族。利用Gene structure、NCBI和MEME在线分析软件,发现毛竹GRF转录因子的基因结构和氨基酸序列较为保守。表达量分析发现GRF转录因子普遍在花中表达丰度最高,其次在竹笋侧芽中表达丰度较高,而在叶片中表达量较低,表明GRF转录因子在毛竹花发育以及笋尖生长发育过程过程中发挥着重要的作用。
