The WD-repeat protein superfamily in Arabidopsis: conservation and divergence in structure and function

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

Most Arabidopsis WDR proteins are strongly conserved across eukaryotes, including those that have been found to play key roles in plant-specific processes, with diversity in function conferred at least in part by divergence in upstream signaling pathways, downstream regulatory targets and /or structure outside of the WDR regions.
