Understudying gene regulatory network in different plants is essential to engineer plants against biotic/abiotic stress. Here, we analyzed 5’UTR to determine which cis-acting elements present at the promoter of canola NHX1 gene, a salt responsive gene. Arabidopsis NHX1 gene sequence was searched in canola (Brassica napus) genome. The putative sequence of NHX1 gene was extracted and analyzed. Many elements were identified that some of them discussed here.
