Identification and bioinformatic analysis of signal responsive/calmodulin-binding transcription activators gene models in Vitis vinifera.
In this study, 10 grapevine (Vitis vinifera) SR/CAMTA (Signal Responsive/Calmodulin-binding Transcription Activators) gene models were identified from three grapevine genome protein datasets. They belong to four gene groups: VvCAMTA1, VvCAMTA3, VvCAMTA4 and VvCAMTA5, which were located on chromosome 5, 7_random, 1 and 5, respectively. Alternative splicing could explain the multiple gene models in one gene group. Subcellular localization using the WoLF tool showed that most of the VvCAMTAs were located in the nucleus, except for VvCAMTA3.1, VvCAMTA3.2 and VvCAMTA5.2, which were located in the chloroplast, chloroplast and cytosol, respectively. Subcellular localization using TargetP showed that most of the VvCAMTAs were not located in the chloroplast, mitochondrion and secretory pathway in cells. VvCAMTA1.1 and VvCAMTA1.2 were located in the mitochondria. The digital gene expression profile showed that VvCAMTAs play important roles in Ca2+ signal transduction. The gene expression patterns of VvCAMTAs were different; for example, VvCAMTA1 was expressed mainly in the bud, while VvCAMTA3 was expressed mainly in fruit and inflorescence, with low expression in the bud. The results of this study make a substantial contribution to our knowledge concerning genes, genome annotation, and cell signal transduction in grapevine.
