The relationship between the L1 and L2 domains of the insulin and epidermal growth factor receptors and leucine-rich repeat modules
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Leucine-rich repeats are one of the more common modules found in proteins. The leucine-rich repeat consensus motif is LxxLxLxxNxLxxLxxLxxLxx- where the... -

The PRC-barrel: a widespread, conserved domain shared by photosynthetic reaction center subunits and proteins of RNA metabolism
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
The PRC-H β-barrel domain, a distinct cytoplasmic β-barrel domain whose fold has no close structural relationship to any other well known β-barrel domain, is the... -

Evolution of gene fusions: horizontal transfer versus independent events
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Gene fusions can be used as tools for functional prediction and also as evolutionary markers. Fused genes often show a scattered phyletic distribution,... -

The GOLD domain, a novel protein module involved in Golgi function and secretion
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Members of the p24 (p24/gp25L/emp24/Erp) family of proteins have been shown to be critical components of the coated vesicles that are involved in the...
