Distribution, expression of hexaploid wheat Fes1s and functional characterization of two TaFes1As in Arabidopsis.

ABSTRACT: Hexaploid wheat is a major food crop and is sensitive to heat stress. It is necessary to discover genes related to thermotolerance in wheat. Fes1s is a class of nucleotide exchange factor of heat shock protein 70s, proven to be participated in heat response in human, yeast, and Arabidopsis. However, little is known about Fes1s in hexaploid wheat. In this study, we identified nine Fes1s in hexaploid wheat (TaFes1s) and found that they present as three triads. A phylogenetic relationship analysis revealed that these Fes1s grouped into Fes1A, Fes1B and Fes1C subclades, and Fes1As and Fes1Bs were divergent in monocots, but possibly not in dicots. The sequences, gene structures and protein motifs of TaFes1s homoeologues within a tri
