In-silico genome wide analysis of Mitogen activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene family in C. sinensis.

ABSTRACT: Mitogen activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) form the upstream component of MAPK cascade. It is well characterized in several plants such as Arabidopsis and rice however the knowledge about MAPKKKs in tea plant is largely unknown. In the present study, MAPKKK genes of tea were obtained through a genome wide search using Arabidopsis thaliana as the reference genome. Among 59 candidate MAPKKK genes in tea, 17 genes were MEKK-like, 31 genes were Raf-like and 11 genes were ZIK- like. Additionally, phylogenetic relationships were established along with structural analysis, which includes gene structure, its location as well as conserved motifs, cis-acting regulatory elements and functional domain signatures that were systematically examined. Also, on the basis of one orthologous gene
