An annotated gene of cytosolic NADP-dependent IDH of Hordeum vulgare was found in the NCBI database. This gene is localized in chromosome 8 and contains 15 exons and 14 introns. The sequence obtained after intron removal and exon fusion was used to select Real-time PCR primers. Optimization of primers showed that the optimal temperature for annealing is 60°C. A study of the promoter of this gene revealed the presence of various regulatory elements, such as a G-box, W-box, DRE, which indicates an important role of cIDH in plant adaptation to stress and possible light regulation of enzyme gene expression. Using the Methprimer program, a CpG island was found in the promoter, which suggests possible epigenetic regulation of expression through methylation/demethylation.
