Transcriptome-Wide Identification of CCCH-Type Zinc Finger Proteins Family in Pinus massoniana and RR-TZF Proteins in Stress Response.

ABSTRACT: CCCH-type zinc finger proteins play an important role in multiple biotic and abiotic stresses. More and more reports about CCCH functions in plant development and stress responses have appeared over the past few years, focusing especially on tandem CCCH zinc finger proteins (TZFs). However, this has not been reported in Pinaceae. In this study, we identified 46 CCCH proteins, including 6 plant TZF members in Pinus massoniana, and performed bioinformatic analysis. According to RT-PCR analysis, we revealed the expression patterns of five RR-TZF genes under different abiotic stresses and hormone treatments. Meanwhile, tissue-specific expression analysis suggested that all genes were mainly expressed in needles. Additionally, RR-TZF genes showed transcriptional activation activity in ye
