Identification and Characterization of SOG1 (Suppressor of Gamma Response 1) Homologues in Plants Using Data Mining Resources and Gene Expression Profiling.

ABSTRACT: SOG1 (Suppressor of the Gamma response 1) is the master-regulator of plant DNA damage response (DDR), a highly coordinated network of DNA damage sensors, transducers, mediators, and effectors, with highly coordinated activities. SOG1 transcription factor belongs to the NAC/NAM protein family, containing the well-conserved NAC domain and five serine-glutamine (SQ) motifs, preferential targets for phosphorylation by ATM and ATR. So far, the information gathered for the SOG1 function comes from studies on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. To expand the knowledge on plant-specific DDR, it is opportune to gather information on other SOG1 orthologues. The current study identified plants where multiple SOG1 homologues are present and evaluated their functions by leveraging the informat
