Glutathione Transferases Superfamily: Cold-Inducible Expression of Distinct GST Genes in Brassica oleracea

Abstract: Plants, as sessile organisms, can suffer serious growth and developmental consequences under cold stress conditions. Glutathione transferases (GSTs, EC 2.5.1.18) are ubiquitous and multifunctional conjugating proteins, which play a major role in stress responses by preventing oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Currently, understanding of their function(s) during different biochemical and signaling pathways under cold stress condition remain unclear. In this study, using combined computational s… Show more

“…Furthermore, KEGG pathway analysis also revealed significantly increased expressions of genes involved in the glutathione metabolism. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) have functions in preventing oxidative damage and keeping redox homeostasis [ 37 40 ]. Our results showed that the expression of DEGs encoding GSTs increased, suggesting that GSTs were involved in protecting the cell against O 3 stress in this experiment.…”

“…sativa members while Arabidopsis GSTs are all absent. This aspect was further investigated also considering Tau GSTs from B. oleracea , another Brassicaceae in which 28 Tau GSTs were also characterized 35 . The phylogenetic tree, including Tau GSTs from B. oleracea , V. vinifera , S. lycopersicum and A. thaliana (Figure S2 ), shows that GSTs from B. oleracea are not included in the subclass 5, and suggests that the absence of members of subclass 5 could be a common feature in Brassicaceae.…”
