Characterization And Tissue-Specific As Well As Heat-Stress Expression Analysis Of Cbl-Interacting Protein Kinase Genes In Dimocarpus Longan Lour, Wei Zheng, Xueming Dong, Xuefei Yu, Qiuying Zhang

Turkish Journal of Botany

The CBL-interacting protein kinase (CIPK) gene family plays important roles in plant growth, development, and responses to abiotic stresses. To date, the CIPKs have been extensively identified and characterized in various plants. However, there have been few studies on CIPKs in Dimocarpus longan Lour (D. longan). In this study we identified eight putative CIPKs in D. longan (DlCIPKs) according to RNA-seq data. The physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, conserved motifs, phylogenetic relationships, glycosylation and phosphorylation sites, and gene ontology annotation were analyzed using bioinformatics tools. The tissue-specific and heat-stress-responsive expressions were systematically investigated as well. Ten motifs widely maintained by DlCIPKs …
