Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Ortholog comparison found two conserved signatures beyond the DNA binding domain.
- Mechanism A peptide signature was essential and sufficient for AtBPC6 nuclear and nucleolar targeting.
- Observation The domain resembles leucine zippers and contains alanines with seven-amino-acid heptad spacing.
- Mechanism The alanine zipper was essential for homotypic dimerization of group II proteins in vivo.
- Mechanism Predicted salt bridges and hydrogen bonds form an interaction domain differing from the classical zipper model.
- Method / resource FRET-FLIM validated parallel dimer formation in planta.
- Observation The domain was found across all kingdoms beyond BBR/BPC proteins.
