Plant Glycogen Synthase Kinases (GSKs) enable a crosstalk among the brassinosteroid signaling and phytohormonal- and stress-response pathways to regulate various physiological processes. Initial information about regulation of the GSK proteins' activity was obtained, however, mechanisms that modulate expression of the GSK genes during plant development and stress responses remain largely unknown. Taking into account the importance of the GSK proteins, combined with the lack of in-depth knowledge about modulation of their expression, research in this area may provide a significant insight into mechanisms regulating these aspects of plant biology. In the current study, a detailed analysis of the GSK promoters in rice and Arabidopsis was performed, including identification of the CpG/CpNpG islands, tandem repeats, cis-acting regulatory elements, conserved motifs, and transcription factor-binding sites. Moreover, characterization of expression profiles of the GSK genes in different tissues, organs and under various abiotic stress conditions was performed. Additionally, protein-protein interactions between products of the GSK genes were predicted. Results of this study provided intriguing information about these aspects and insight into various regulatory mechanisms that influence non-redundant and diverse functions of the GSK genes during development and stress responses. Therefore, they may constitute a reference for future research in other plant species
