Bhlh Transcription Factors

The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein transcription factor family is the most widely distributed transcription factor family in eukaryotes. Members of this family play important roles in secondary metabolic biosynthesis, signal transduction, and plant resistance. Research on the bHLH family in animals is more extensive than that in plants, and members of the family in plants are classified according to the classification criteria for those in animals. To date, no research on the bHLH gene family in Pinus massoniana (Masson pine) has been reported. In this study, we identified 88 bHLH genes from four transcriptomes of Masson pine and performed bioinformatics analysis. These genes were divided into 10 groups in total. RT-PCR analysis revealed that the expression levels of the six genes increased under abiotic stress and hormone treatments. These findings will facilitate further studies on the functions of bHLH transcription factors.

Members of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors play important roles in a wide range of developmental processes. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide survey using the chicken (Gallus gallus) genomic database, and identified 104 bHLH sequences belonging to 42 gene families in an effort to characterize the chicken bHLH transcription factor family. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that chicken has 50, 21, 15, 4, 8, and 3 bHLH members in groups A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively, while three members belonging to none of these groups were classified as ‘‘orphans’’. A comparison between chicken and human bHLH repertoires suggested that both organisms have a number of lineage-specific bHLH members in the proteomes. Chromosome distribution patterns and phylogenetic analyses strongly suggest that the bHLH members should have arisen through gene duplication at an early date. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment statistics showed 51 top GO annotations of biological processes counted in the frequency. The present study deepens our understanding of the chicken bHLH transcription factor family and provides much useful information for further studies using chicken as a model system.
