Identification and expression profiling of the bone morphogenetic protein gene family based on pearl culture in mantle and visceral mass of Hyriopsis cumingii.

ABSTRACT: Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play an important biological role in pearl biomineralization in pearl mussels. In this study, based on the genome data of the triangular sail mussel (Hyriopsis cumingii), the genome-wide identification and bioinformatic analysis of BMP gene family were performed, and the expression pattern of the BMP genes was investigated by the insertion experiments. The results showed that a total of 12 BMP gene family members (BMP2a/2b, BMP3, BMP5a/5b, BMP7a/7b/7c, BMP9, BMP10a/10b, and BMP11) were identified, which were unevenly distributed on chromosome 3/14/18, encoding 169-583 amino acids, with molecular weights ranging from 19.32 to 65.99 kDa. BMP2a, BMP7b, and BMP10a were distributed, respecti
