Characterization of HSP70 and HSP90 Gene Family in Takifugu fasciatus and Their Expression Profiles on Biotic and Abiotic Stresses Response.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play crucial roles in response to temperature changes and biotic stresses. However, the HSP gene family in the pufferfish (Takifugu fasciatus) herring has not been comprehensively investigated.

Methods and results

This study presents a systematic analysis of the HSP70 and HSP90 gene families in T. fasciatus, focusing on gene characterization, conserved structural domains, molecular evolutionary history, and expression patterns of the HSP gene family under stress conditions. The findings reveal that 16 HSP genes are evolutionarily conserved, while hspa4 and hsp90aa appear specific to teleost fish. HSP genes exhibit widespread expression across 11 examined tissues, with most demonstrating high expression
