WD40-Repeat Proteins in Plant Cell Wall Formation: Current Evidence and Research Prospects
The metabolic complexity of living organisms relies on supramolecular protein structures which ensure vital processes, such as signal transduction, transcription, translation and cell wall synthesis. In eukaryotes WD40-repeat (WDR) proteins often function as molecular "hubs" mediating supramolecular interactions. WDR proteins may display a variety of interacting partners and participate in the ...
متن کاملPlant cell wall degrading and remodeling proteins: current perspectives
Lignocellulose constitutes a raw material with considerable potential for the production of fermentable sugars and the generation of biofuels. In nature, lignocellulosic waste from forestry, agriculture and gardening acts as the preferred carbon source of a number of bacteria and fungi endowed with the required ligninolytic machinery. These hydrolytic activities could potentially be complemente...
متن کاملWDSPdb: a database for WD40-repeat proteins
WD40-repeat proteins, as one of the largest protein families, often serve as platforms to assemble functional complexes through the hotspot residues on their domain surfaces, and thus play vital roles in many biological processes. Consequently, it is highly required for researchers who study WD40 proteins and protein-protein interactions to obtain structural information of WD40 domains. Systema...
متن کاملIntroduction: plant cell wall proteins.
The cell wall and its underlying plasma membrane represent the dynamic interface between a plant cell and its environment, which includes neighboring cells. Biology texts commonly describe plant cell walls, but rarely acknowledge the existence and importance of cell wall proteins, making them the Rodney Dangerfields of plant biology. This set of multi-author reviews provides the reader with a c...
متن کاملMetacercarial proteins interacting with WD40-repeat protein of Clonorchis sinensis.
The WD40-repeat proteins serve as a platform coordinating partner proteins and are involved in a range of regulatory cellular functions. A WD40-repeat protein (CsWD1) of Clonorchis sinensis previously cloned is expressed stage-specifically in the tegumental syncytium of C. sinensis metacercariae. In the present study, interacting proteins with the CsWD1 protein was purified by immunoprecipitati...
