Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the Cys2His2 Zinc Finger Protein Gene Family in Flammulina filiformis.

ABSTRACT: Zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) are essential transcription factors in eukaryotes, particularly the extensively studied C2H2 family, which is known for its involvement in various biological processes. This research provides a thorough examination and analysis of the C2H2-ZFP gene family in Flammulina filiformis. Using bioinformatics tools, 58 FfC2H2-ZFP genes spread across 11 chromosomes were identified and scrutinized in detail for their gene structures, protein characteristics, and phylogenetic relationships. The study of phylogenetics and synteny sheds light on the evolutionary relationships among C2H2-ZFPs in F. filiformis and other fungi, revealing a complex evolutionary past. The identification of conserved cis-regulatory elements in the gene promoter regions suggest
