Genome-wide identification and characterization of 14-3-3 gene family related to negative regulation of starch accumulation in storage root of Manihot esculenta.

ABSTRACT: The 14-3-3 protein family is a highly conservative member of the acid protein family and plays an important role in regulating a series of important biological activities and various signal transduction pathways. The role of 14-3-3 proteins in regulating starch accumulation still remains largely unknown. To investigate the properties of 14-3-3 proteins, the structures and functions involved in starch accumulation in storage roots were analyzed, and consequently, 16 Me14-3-3 genes were identified. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Me14-3-3 family proteins are split into two groups (ε and non-ε). All Me14-3-3 proteins contain nine antiparallel α-helices. Me14-3-3s-GFP fusion protein was targeted exclusively to the nuclei and cytoplasm. In the early stage of starch accumulation in th
