The biosynthesis of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl (DMAPP), which are essential for sesquiterpenes triterpenes, respectively, is primarily governed by the mevalonate pathway, wherein farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPS) plays a pivotal role. This study identified eight members FPS gene family in Euphorbia hirta, designated EhFPS1–EhFPS8, through bioinformatics analysis, revealing their distribution across several chromosomes notable tandem cluster. genes exhibited strong hydrophilic properties key functional motifs crucial enzyme activity. An in-depth analysis EhFPS highlighted significant involvement isoprenoid metabolism lipid biosynthesis, with expression patterns influenced hormones such as jasmonic acid salicylic acid. Tissue-specific demonstrated that certain genes, particularly EhFPS1, EhFPS2, EhFPS7, showed elevated levels latex, suggesting critical roles terpenoid biosynthesis. Furthermore, subcellular localization studies have indicated these proteins found cytoplasm, reinforcing function metabolic processes. These findings provide foundational understanding E. including structures, conserved domains, evolutionary relationships. elucidates potential response to environmental factors, hormone signaling, stress adaptation, thereby paving way future analyses aimed at exploring regulation enhancing tolerance this species.
