Genome-wide Identification and Bioinformatics Analysis of PfPIN Gene Family in Perilla frutescens
The regulation of endogenous auxin closely influences the growth and development of plants.The PIN genes,a family of auxin efflux carrier genes,play a crucial role in the polar transport of auxin,which in turn regulates the growth and development of different tissues.Based on whole genome data of Perilla,this study identified the PfPIN gene family and conducted bioinformatics analysis.The results indicated that there were 15 members in the PfPIN gene family,which were spread across 8 chromosomes and categorized into 6 distinct branches.The PfPIN protein can vary in length from 350 to 653 aa,with molecular weights ranging from 38.10 to 70.71 kDa.Additionally,its isoelectric points can range from 7.18 to 9.58,and the number of introns can vary from 3 to 6.All PfPIN proteins were situated on the cell membrane and exhibit typical transmembrane structures.The cis-acting elements of the promoter were associated with light,hormone,stress response,and other factors.Light and plant hormone response elements were the most common among them.This study will offer guidance for further research on auxin-related factors in Perilla and establish the groundwork for future investigations into the function of the PfPIN gene in Perilla.
