The cDNA of PDC1 and PDC2 were amplified from the seedling of Hylocereus undatus ‘Guangming 2’ by the technique of RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends). The PDC1 and PDC2 had a length of 1191bp and 2046 bp, and an open reading frame that encoded a protein of 351 and 604 amino acids, respectively. PDC1 was similar to PDC2 in motif and domain, which indicated that the two protein was relatively conserved to some extent. The 3D structure prediction showed that both of the two proteins of PDC1 and PDC2 were homotetramers. Amino acid sequence comparisons suggested that PDC1 had high identity with Chenopodium quinoa PDC1 (88% identity), PDC2 had high identity with Beta vulgaris PDC2 (84% identity).
