- Abstract
Hsp70/110s are a subfamily of heat shock proteins that play crucial roles against different types of environmental stressors and pathogenic organisms. To understand the evolution and divergence patterns of the Hsp70/110 gene family in polychaetes, genome-wide data from Capitella teleta and Owenia fusiformis were systematically analyzed based on bioinformatics methods. A total of 32 Hsp70/110 genes were identified in C. teleta, while only 11 Hsp70/110 genes were found in O. fusiformis. The phylogenetic tree supported that these genes were divided into 9 subfamilies. Selective pressure analysis showed that the Hsp70/110 gene family in polychaetes has evolved under purifying selection. Furthermore, diverse expression profiles were displayed for different Hsp70/110 genes in the two polychaetes. These results provide a theoretical basis for further studies of the molecular evolutionary patterns and function of the Hsp70/110 gene family in polychaetes.
