Genome-Wide Analysis of the Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Family in Soybean and Functional Identification of GmG6PDH2 Involvement in Salt Stress.

ABSTRACT: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) is known as a critical enzyme responsible for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) generation in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and has an essential function in modulating redox homeostasis and stress responsiveness. In the present work, we characterized the nine members of the G6PDH gene family in soybean. Phylogenic analysis and transit peptide prediction showed that these soybean G6PDHs are divided into plastidic (P) and cytosolic (Cy) isoforms. The subcellular locations of five GmG6PDHs were further verified by confocal microscopy in Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts. The respective GmG6PDH genes had distinct expression patterns in various soybean tissues and at different times during seed development. Among t
