Abstract Nuclear factor-Y (NF-Y) is a class of transcription factors widely distributed in eukaryotes. It composed of NF-YA, NF-YB and NF-YC subunits. NF-YA is involved in regulating plant growth and development, and stress response. In this study, qRT-PCR method was used to analyze the expression pattern of 10 StNF-YA genes of potato (Solanum tuberosum) in the process of tuber dormancy release. The results showed that the StNF-YA8 gene was consistently up-regulated in expression during dormancy release in tubers. The StNF-YA8 gene was further cloned (GenBank No. XM_015309982.1), and its ORF was 591 bp, encoding 196 amino acids. The subcellular localization vector of StNF-YA8 protein was constructed, and the results showed that StNF-YA8 protein was localized in the nucleus and cell membrane. Tissue-specific analysis revealed that the StNF-YA8 gene was differentially expressed between different tissues. The results of bioinformatics analysis showed that the potato StNF-YA8 protein contained a conserved CBFB domain, and had the highest evolutionary relationship with wild potato (S. commersonii); StNF-YA8 protein closely interacted with StNF-YB3/5/10/14/17 and StNF-YC1/4/5/8/9 proteins; there were cis-acting elements involved in light response, circadian rhythm control and hormone response in the promoter sequence of this gene. The results can provide a basis for the molecular mechanism analysis of potato StNF-YA8 gene involved in regulating tuber dormancy release.
