Genome-wide in silico identification and characterization of the stress associated protein (SAP) gene family encoding A20/AN1 zinc-finger proteins in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.).

Stress associated proteins (SAPs) in plants have a key role in providing tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses. SAP gene family in Solanum tuberosum has not been fully studied before. This study identified 17 StSAP genes in S. tuberosum which code for A20/AN1 zinc-finger proteins. All the genes wer...

description Stress associated proteins (SAPs) in plants have a key role in providing tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses. SAP gene family in Solanum tuberosum has not been fully studied before. This study identified 17 StSAP genes in S. tuberosum which code for A20/AN1 zinc-finger proteins. All the genes were distributed on ten different chromosomes and six segmental duplication events were identified. The SAPs in S. tuberosum and its orthologs in Arabidopsis thaliana were classified into six groups through the phylogenetic analysis. Introns across StSAP genes were identified in four genes. The promotor study of the StSAP genes showed different hormone and stress-related cis-elements that could potentially have a role in environmental stress response. The expression of StSAP genes in response to heat, mannitol, and salt were analyzed through in silico transcriptomic analysis. This study could potentially help in further understanding the functions of SAP genes in S. tuberosum.
