Molecular Characterization, Expression Pattern and Function Analysis of Glycine-Rich Protein Genes Under Stresses in Chinese Cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis).

ABSTRACT: Plant Glycine-rich proteins (GRP), a superfamily with a glycine-rich domain, play an important role in various stresses such as high or low temperature stress and drought stress. GRP genes have been studied in many plants, but seldom in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis). In this study, a total of 64 GRP genes were identified in Chinese cabbage by homology comparative analysis. The physical and chemical characteristics predicted by ProtParam tool revealed that 62.5% of BrGRPs were alkaline, 53.1% were stable, and 79.7% were hydrophilic. Conserved domain analysis by MEME and TBtools showed that 64 BrGRPs contained 20 of the same conserved motifs, based on which BrGRPs were classified into five main classes and four subclasses in class IV to clarify their
