Gene Details:
- Gene ID: evm.model.supercontig_8.253
- Gene Symbol: CpbHLH2
- Gene Name:
- Genome: papaya genomic DNA (ftp://ftp.jgipsf.org/pub/compgen/phytozome/v9.0/Cpapaya)
- Species: Carica papaya
Functional Descriptions:
- Papaya CpbHLH1/CpbHLH2 regulate carotenoid biosynthesis-related genes during papaya fruit ripening.
- In response to strong light, the results of elevated expression of carotenoid biosynthesis-related genes and the changed expression of CpbHLH1/CpbHLH2 indicated that CpbHLH1/CpbHLH2 were involved in light-mediated mechanisms of regulating critical genes in the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway.
- Our findings demonstrated several TF family members participating in the regulation of carotenoid genes and proved that CpbHLH1 and CpbHLH2 individually regulated the transcription of lycopene β-cyclase genes (CpCYC-B and CpLCY-B).
- CpbHLH1 and CpbHLH2 bind promoter regions of CpCYC-B and CpLCY-B and regulate their expression during papaya fruit development.
