Genomewide survey and characterization of metacaspase gene family in rice (Oryza sativa).

Journal of genetics - 1 Apr 2014

Wang Likai, Zhang Hua

Abstract excerpt

Metacaspases (MCs), which are cysteine-dependent proteases found in plants, fungi, and protozoa, may be involved in programmed cell death processes, being distant relatives of metazoan caspases. In this study, we analysed the structures, phylogenetic relationship, genome localizations, expression patterns and domestic selections of eight MC genes identified in rice (OsMC). Alignment analysis of the corresponding...
