An ACT-like domain participates in the dimerization of several plant basic-helix-loop-helix transcription factors.
The maize basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) factor R belongs to a group of proteins with important functions in the regulation of metabolism and development through the cooperation with R2R3-MYB transcription factors. Here we show that in addition to the bHLH and the R2R3-MYB-interacting domains, R contains a dimerization region located C-terminal to the bHLH motif. This protein-protein interaction...
متن کاملA Domain in the bHLH Transcription Factor DYT1 Is Critical for Anther Development.
Stamen primordia transform into slender filaments bearing pollen-laden anthers in a series of well-defined developmental steps (Goldberg et al., 1993; Scott et al., 2004). During anther stages 1-7, anther morphology is established, cell specification and differentiation occur, and microspore mother cells undergo meiosis (Sanders et al., 1999). At anther stages 8-14, pollen grains differentiate,...

متن کاملExpression of a Chimeric Protein Containing the Catalytic Domain of Shiga-Like Toxin and Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (hGM-CSF) in Escherichia coli and Its Recognition by Reciprocal Antibodies
Fusion of two genes at DNA level produces a single protein, known as a chimeric protein. Immunotoxins are chimeric proteins composed of specific cell targeting and cell killing moieties. Bacterial or plant toxins are commonly used as the killing moieties of the chimeric immunotoxins. In this investigation, the catalytic domain of Shiga-like toxin (A1) was fused to human granulocyte macrophage ...
متن کاملIn Silico Characterization of Proteins Containing ARID-PHD Domain and Its Expression in Aeluropus littoralis Halophyte
Abiotic stresses are the most important factors that reduce the yield of crops. In this case, Bioinformatics analysis plays an important role to study genes, and their relatedness as well as prediction their function in response to abiotic stresses. Among all domains, ARID-PHD domain has been identified in plants and animals and has a very significant role in growth regulation, cell cycle, and ...
