Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of HSP90 gene family in Nicotiana tabacum.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Heat shock proteins 90 (HSP90s) are a highly conserved protein family of cellular chaperones widely found in plants; they play a fundamental role in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. The genome-wide analysis of HSP90 gene family has been completed for some species; however, it has been rarely reported for the tobacco HSP90 genes.

Results

In this study, we systematically conducted genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the tobacco HSP90 gene family, including gene structures, evolutionary relationships, chromosomal locations, conserved domains, and expression patterns. Twenty-one NtHSP90s were identified and classified into eleven categories (NtHSP90-1 to NtHSP90-11) based on phylogenetic analysis. The conserved structures and motifs of NtHSP9
