In silico study of basic leucine zipper transcription factors of Carica papaya L.

Transcription factors regulate gene expression by interacting directly with DNA. The class of basic leucine zipper factors or bZIP in arabidopsis has 75 members with similar amino acid domains among all its members. In this work, the papaya genome was studied in silico in order to find possible orth...

Sumario:Transcription factors regulate gene expression by interacting directly with DNA. The class of basic leucine zipper factors or bZIP in arabidopsis has 75 members with similar amino acid domains among all its members. In this work, the papaya genome was studied in silico in order to find possible ortholog bZIP genes in papaya. 37 possible sequences were found, the bioinformatics analysis of the sequences was performed. The sequences were grouped and named similarly to the arabidopsis classification. The results presented below could be used to experimentally evaluate the possible biological function of these genes in papaya.
