Genome-Wide Analysis and Expression Profiling of Glyoxalase Gene Families Under Abiotic Stresses in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.).

ABSTRACT: The glyoxalase pathway, consisting of glyoxalase I (GLYI) and glyoxalase II (GLYII), is an enzymatic system that converts cytotoxic methylglyoxal to non-toxic S-D-lactoylglutathione. Although the GLY gene family has been analyzed in Arabidopsis, rice, grape, cabbage, and soybean, cucumber studies are lacking. Here, we analyzed the cucumber GLY gene family, identifying 13 CsGLYI and 2 CsGLYII genes. Furthermore, we investigated the physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships, chromosomal localization and colinearity, gene structure, conserved motifs, cis-regulatory elements, and protein-protein interaction networks of the CsGLY family. They were primarily localized in the cytoplasm, chloroplasts, and mitochondria, with a minor presence in
